both hands and feet

I like how you can see how they grip with a hand, but the 2 thumbs are clear, and how long and sharp those claws are. Ever present too since they don't retract.

Do they use their claws for help when climbing up and down? Each of this koala's claws looks super-sharp!

[Mags]

Wonderful capture of those claws.

[Kate]

Very sharp claws…nice closeup

[Joanne Diochon]

Maybe best not to shake hands with a Koala?

[Christine Sztukowski]

Scary claws

[Suzanne]

I don't comment on all but I am finding your fact sheets so interesting. Well done!

[Rob Z]

Great close up of them too.

[Pyrrhula]

Shaking hands is dangerous I supose.

[Babs]

Great close up of those nails.

[Islandgirl]

Yiikes sharp claws!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Yes, those claws can be used for climbing but also to do some damage so watch out! They are quite ergonomic!

[Rick]

Great close-up

[Shutterbug]

I like how the foot is higher than the hand. They are quite gymnastic.

[winghong_ho]

Great close-up.

[Boxplayer]

Excellent claws

[KoalaGardens🐨]

@olivetreeann as all of us that rescue koalas know too well!

[Diana]

Such a perfect close up with wonderful detail.

[haskar]

Beautiful details and info. These claws remind me of the shoe covers that installers used to put on when climbing wooden power poles.

[Joan Robillard]

Good shot

[Brian]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Thank you for the info. So interesting.

[carol white]

Great close up, wouldn't want to argue with those claws.

[Michelle]

Wow they certainly look sharp!

[Steve Chappell]

They look very sharp, wouldn't want to tangle with them

[Paula Fontanini]

I'm learning so much from you this week. I assume those claws would come in real handy climbing the trees.
