The Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) are arboreal marsupials that feed on the leaves of the Eucalyptus tree. Although they are often called ‘koala bears’ they are not a true bear. They are in fact more closely related to the kangaroo. They are about 30 inches high and weigh about 26 lbs. The koalas in the north are generally smaller than their southern counterparts. In the wild koalas are thought to live for around ten years. Females generally bear one young each year, usually becoming sexually active in their third year. Koalas have a specially adapted digestive tract that assists in breaking down their high fibre, low carbohydrate diet of toxic gum leaves. The magnet measures 2.5” x 3.5” (6.35 x 8.89cm) with a metal shell, mylar/UV protecting cover and flat magnetic back. The artwork is a reproduction of an original line art drawing by wildlife illustrator Roger Hall.
