Are koala's feet similar to human feet?

In: Koalas [Edit categories]

Answer:

Not really, they are covered in fur, clawed, and have less toes.
However, they do have one similarity - their front paws are like "hands", having opposable thumbs. This enables the koala to grip the branches of the trees in which it spends most of its time.
