Do koalas live with other animals?

No other animals live specifically with the koala, but Ringtail possums and Greater gliders share the same niche as a koala. All of these animals are capable of living entirely on eucalyptus leaves, and they are primarily arboreal, or tree-dwelling.

Koalas live in bushland, where a variety of other native Australian animals may live on the ground. These can include other species of possums and gliders, wallabies, wombats, quolls, bandicoots and echidnas, among other creatures. Birds include kookaburras, lyrebirds, scrub pheasants, tawny frogmouth, and parrots such as cockatoos, lorikeets, galahs, corellas and rosellas. Goannas and a variety of snakes are also common in this type of bushland.
