1 There are only 2,000 to 8,000 wild koalas in Australia at present. 2  They can live to be 17 years old in the wild, but if they live near populated areas they usually have a shorter life-span because of accidents and disease. 1 Koalas do not live in the rainforest. 2  There are only 2,000 to 8,000 wild koalas in Australia at present. 3  They can live to be 17 years old in the wild, but if they live near populated areas they usually have a shorter life-span because of accidents and disease. Habitat & Diet 'Habitat' refers to the types of bushland that koalas like to live in. They are found in a range of habitats, from coastal islands and tall eucalypt forests to low woodlands inland. Koalas today are found in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia. Their range extends from the Atherton Tableland west of Cairns in Qld to islands off the coast of Victoria and South Australia in the south, and west to central and western Qld, NSW and Victoria.  Koalas are particular to Eastern Australia, and can be found along the eastern and south-eastern coastal regions. They live in cool temperate zones, right up to hot, sub-tropical zones. Koalas live in a range of habitats, as long as there are abundant eucalyptus trees of the sort they prefer. They are found on coastal islands, tall eucalypt forests, bushland and low woodlands inland. LIFESPAN: Koalas can live as long as 17 years, although high mortality rates (due to car fatalities and dogs) for males lower their life expectancy to 2 to 10 years. RANGE: The koala's historic range stretches across Australia. Today they can be found only in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, and South Australia. HABITAT: Koalas prefer to live in eucalyptus forests, coastal islands, and low woodlands. FOOD: Koalas consume eucalyptus leaves and bark from 12 different eucalyptus tree species.  1 Koalas can only be found in the eucalyptus forests of eastern and south-eastern Australia. 2  Their habitat quality can be measured by density of the food trees. 3  Koalas do not live in the rainforest. 4  There are only 2,000 to 8,000 wild koalas in Australia at present. 1 Koalas do not live in the rainforest. 2  There are only 2,000 to 8,000 wild koalas in Australia at present. 3  They can live to be 17 years old in the wild, but if they live near populated areas they usually have a shorter life-span because of accidents and disease.

It is the only extant representative of the family Phascolarctidae, and its closest living relatives are the wombats. The koala is found in coastal areas of the mainland's eastern and southern regions, inhabiting Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, and South Australia. It is easily recognisable by its stout, tailless body and large head with round, fluffy ears and large, spoon-shaped nose. The first recorded encounter between a European and a koala was in 1798, and an image of the animal was published in 1810 by naturalist George Perry. Botanist Robert Brown wrote the first detailed scientific description of the koala in 1814, although his work remained unpublished for 180 years. Koalas are found between south-eastern South Australia and Queensland, but only where enough suitable trees have been left. The largest koalas weigh over 10 kilograms and are found in Victoria, while the smallest live in North Queensland and weigh only 5.5 kilograms. In NSW, koalas mainly live on the central and north coasts, with some populations west of the Great Dividing Range, on the south coast and on the southern tablelands. Koalas live for between 10 and 20 years, and generally breed between September and February. Female koalas can breed from about two years of age, and have a gestation period of about two months, producing one young koala a year, and on rare occasions they may produce twins.
