Eucalyptus leaves can kill other plants. They are extremely toxic and just a few leaves around a plant can kill it. Of course some plants are immuned to the toxic poison.

What animals can eat poisonous plants?

It is not a good idea for any animal to eat poisonous plants. Some can tolerate some types and other types will kill them. It's best not to take that chance. Because what one animal can eat quite comfortably could kill an animal of a similar species. On the other hand what is poisonous very much depends on the species involved. Raisins, and to a lesser extent even grapes are deadly poisons to dogs; they aren't considered poisonous to people. At all costs, prevent your dog from eating even one raisin. Koalas live on a diet almost exclusively consisting of Eucalyptus leaves. They contain high levels of the noxious/toxic Eucalyptus oil that makes the plant inedible for just about any other creature, and they contain very little nutritive value. But Koalas thrive on them and can't live without an abundant supply. Possums also eat Eucalyptus leaves but to a lesser extent and it doesn't have any affect on them either. Koalas also only like some types of Eucalyptus tree and won't touch other types.
