which part of AUS get to see and take pic wif koala bear?

erm... most of australia.

All u have to do is either go to a zoo or a wildlife sanctuary. If U wanna take a pic wif them, U'll have to pay for it. I also think there are timings for that though.

Perth has Cohunu Park.

some allow you to carry the bear for photo-taking, others just let you stand beside it (but near enough).

Sometimes it depends on the 'season' too. If there're too many tourists, they may restrict the interaction.

well most of the states or cities have small koala preserves, and these are the ones that allow a lot of interaction as they hardly get any guests.

There was one small koala hospital i used to go in newcastle and they encoruage interaction. They actually want you to interact so that the koalas can be less afraid of humans or something like that.

conhunu park is a good place too.

One of the wildlife reserves at Gold Coast allows for photo-taking opportunities with a koala..Can't remember the name of the place now coz it's been a few years, but I remember that the koala was so comfortable with the strangers it decided to take a leak... =x That was a pretty funny sight.
