@gardencat@craftymeg amazingly the only times we see koalas fall is if they are sick and weak, or sometimes a young joey learning to climb will fall, otherwise it can happen when fighting (the aim is to throw them out of the tree) or when attempting to mate. thankfully they don't seem to have myoclonic jerks (sudden twitches and yes I have them!).
I have however seen one get a little startled and jump and make a sudden grab and recover - heart stopping stuff!
Would send them tumbling.
