9. Koala. Phascolarctos cinereus (Goldfuss, 1817) [W,P&M]
512 x 337 mm
The koalas shot at Hat Hill in 1803 have been dissected – probably by Robert Brown using his
medical skills – to remove the skulls for Bauer to draw – as shown here. Also included are
detailed drawings of the feet, the underside of the head and the teeth.
