2. First Phase of a Koala’s Life Cycle
The first stage of a koala’s life cycle is the koala is born from it’s mother a mammal and a marsupial. A marsupial is a mammal that has a pouch to carry their young. The adult has its young mostly from August to February. Where koala’s activity in increased. When the koala is born it is 2 centimeters ,1 gram, and they also look like a pink jelly bean because they are born hairless, blind, and without ears.

The second phase of the koalas life cycle is the mom puts the baby koala (joey) into the pouch and the mother tightens the outer muscle to prevent the koala falling out. About a week in the pouch the koala almost has a full coat of hair.The koala stays in the pouch for 7-8 months

The third stage of a koalas life cycle is that the koala is ready to leave the mothers pouch. The koala still stays close to the mother for another 2 months. The koala usually clings to the back of the mother after exiting the pouch.

The fourth phase of a life cycle is that the now adult koala has left its mother at 10 months old. The koalas at age of 2 years will usually find a mate and reproduce , like I said before, from August to February.

Like all good things, koalas have to end. Koala’s death is usually caused by hunters, old age, and tree cutters, but luckily there are plenty of koalas to go around.
