Had a question about the appearance of koala poop.
They actually gold plate it, make earrings, and sell it to the tourists.
Eucalyptus leaves are quite toxic and koalas require a microbe in their stomach to help with the digestion. As part of growing up a mother koala feeds her baby some of her poop to pass on that microbe. Mountain gorillas do the same...(but with their own poop NOT koala poop).
