Talking 'bout the Joey's cry or the older fellows snarl?That growl...I recall the first time I heard it...
That older fellows snarl. We was out in the national park hiking when the girl I was with wanted to get a picture of this koala...it was up about 15' in the tree, but the slope was such I pointed out she could climb up and be even with it..and only 8-10 feet away.... So she climbed the escarpment to take a picture. Just about the time she was gonna snap a pic he growlbarksnarled, she zipped right back down and into my arms...no longer interested in a picture.Talking 'bout the Joey's cry or the older fellows snarl?
Lots of tourist find out the hard way just how menacing those cute and cuddly creatures can be. That's why I said the vid I posted was just a sibling rivalry. Had Joey wandered up the wrong tree and failed to heed a non-family member's warning, as this little fellow did, there wouldn't have been enough left of him to cry.That older fellows snarl.

Nearly all baby marsupials are referred to as 'Joeys' not just the roos.A. You refer as Joey... I've only heard that for roos, y'all use that for all young animals?
