Had the rare privilege to hold and pet a koala joey. Wonderful memory that I will cherish my whole life.

Nanna, we were told we couldn't cuddle a koala, only stroke their backs. Probably correct as we need to protect them.

Nix, maybe because they sort of look like teddy bears.

I hate to correct the question, but marsupials are an order, not a family.

Queen, I don't think koalas would rip you the shreds but maybe I'm wrong you never know.

In most reserves people are no longer allowed to cuddle them. And yes they can rip you to shreds.
