What Is The Name For A Baby Koala? | Trivia Answers - QuizzClub

What is the name for a baby koala?

Koalas are marsupials native to coastal regions of Australia. Marsupials are mammals, just like dogs, cats, and human beings. These mammals are called placental mammals. Unlike placental mammals, marsupials give birth to tiny, underdeveloped young. Female marsupials have a pouch on their bellies, which they can zip and unzip by using a special muscle. Baby marsupials stay protected in their mother's pouch instead of inside her body. Other marsupials include kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, and opossums.

Like all marsupial babies, baby koalas are called joeys. A koala joey is the size of a jellybean! It has no hair, no ears, and is blind. Joeys crawl into their mother's pouch immediately after birth and stay there for about six months. That's about how long it takes for them to see, grow ears and hair, and walk (or waddle) on their own.
