Best Answer

A kangaroo's tail is very strong. It plays a vital role in balancing the animal, both when it is bounding along, and when it is just walking slowly. A kangaroo will sometimes balance briefly on its tail while it kicks out with its hind legs: this is an effective defence behaviour.

A koala's bite is strong and sharp. Koalas have sharp front teeth for nipping off leaves and flowers, but they also have strong molars for grinding the tough eucalyptus leaves. A cornered koala will bite quite strongly in an attempt to defend itself.
