Koala

6 cm x 6 cm

• Fun facts:The koala is an arboreal herbivorous marsupial (with a pouch for raising its young) native to Australia. Its closest relatives are wombats. Its paws are specially adapted for gripping and climbing. On the CollectA figure, the largest digit of the hind paw, which is opposable to the others, is clawless. In addition, this beautifully sculpted CollectA figure makes it easy to identify the sex of a koala by looking for the dark brown scent gland located in the center of the white chest of adult breeding males. Females and pre-breeding young males have a plain white chest.
