November 2013. Two adjacent large yards can be combined if a gate is left opened. They contain female koalas and Parma Wallaby.

Are all of San Diego's koalas on display at the same time? Also, are the koalas on display also used for breeding, or are there breeding animals off-exhibit?
 
I believe I heard that all the koalas are usually on exhibit, so the breeders are on exhibit too. The koalas are outside all the time generally in the new exhibits.

Thanks for that! And I assume that all of the koalas are Queensland koalas (judging by the fact that they include a 'Queenslander' style house)?
 
It is funny because I don't remember seeing a sign identifying them as Queensland koalas, I assumed so. Perhaps the zoo is on the side of those that dispute whether there are subspecies or not.

One last question. Does San Diego also control the European population of koalas? Thanks for your answers.
