The first southern koala has been born at Longleat safari park in Wiltshire, England.

The joey was born six months ago and spent life safely inside mum Violet's pouch, until recently when they have started to venture out. It's the first of its kind to be born in Europe.

In addition to milk, joeys eat 'pap' - a liquefied form of the mother's faeces which provides the baby with the microbes it needs to digest eucalyptus leaves.
