## Caption

Have you ever heard someone refer to a #koala as a "koala bear?" Like bears, koalas are mammals, and they have round, fuzzy ears that resemble cute and cuddly teddy bears. Despite these characteristics, koalas are not bears. They’re members of a group of pouched animals called #marsupials. Can you name other marsupial species? 🐨#koalifornia (photo: Ion Moe)
