Koalas are marsupials native to coastal regions of Australia.
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.
When they're about six months old, joeys venture out into the world, although they stay pretty close to their mother—usually by riding on her front or back, like this one.
