Australia is famous worldwide for its unique wildlife. When it comes to national symbols, Australia is unusual in having two official national animals.
Australia is the only continent that is also a country. It is home to many unique animals found nowhere else — including the Kangaroo, Koala, Platypus, and Wombat.
Australia has two national animals:
Both animals appear on the Australian Coat of Arms, where they are shown supporting the shield.
Both were chosen for a symbolic reason — the kangaroo and emu are both unable to walk backwards (they can only move forward). This symbolises Australia's national spirit of always moving forward and never retreating.
No. The Koala is NOT the national animal — it is just the most internationally famous Australian animal. The official national animal is the **Red Kangaroo**.
