Australian "bear" (5)

I believe the answer is:

koala

'australian bear' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for koala that I've seen before include "Cuddly Australian marsupial" , "Eater of eucalyptus" , "Arboreal Australian native" , "Marsupial climber" , "small bear" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the USA Today and The Star Tribune.
