Koala

Where to catch the Koala

The Koala lives in Jungle (zone 4 of 17), around the middle of the zone. It is number 4 of 7 in the Jungle index. A full-strength throw needs roughly 500 – 720 Throw Power to land in Jungle.

Foods that land here: Bread ($12M), Watermelon ($60M). A higher-tier food pushes the roll toward the rarer end of the Jungle list, so the newest food you own is always the best bait.

Any throw that lands around the middle of the zone can produce it. If you are hunting it for the index, lower your throw strength with the gear icon until the food lands on that spot – distance inside a zone decides which animals can come.

Is it worth keeping?

• A plain Koala earns 7.9x a plain Kangaroo, the best animal from Desert.
• The best plain earner here is the Gorilla ($1.5M/s), 5x this one.
• The first animal in Ocean, the Crab, makes 6.7x as much – once your throws reach Ocean, replace it.
• Keep it longer only if it rolled a strong mutation or size (see the table below) or you need it for the index.

Koala income by mutation and size

A plain Koala makes $300K/s. Mutations and sizes multiply that number, and the two stack. The table below multiplies the plain income by the multipliers I have measured (Gold ×1.5, Diamond ×3, Emerald ×5, Ruby ×10, Rainbow ×20; Big ×2, Large ≈×4.3, Huge ≈×9, Colossal ≈×18.5, Gigantic ≈×37). Treat the size columns as estimates – real catches land a little above or below. With the 2x Cash gamepass every number doubles.
