According to some websites, koala means "no drink" in Aboriginal language. According to Wikipedia, this is incorrect. If you look up the word koala in the Online Etymological Dictionary, it says "1808, from the Aboriginal name of the animal, variously given as koola, kulla, kula." However, it is true that koalas rarely drink water. They usually get enough water from their food.
