Eh, she might have genuinely not realized that he's attempting a joke. You do need to bring across in your voice+expression that you're being humorous, otherwise it sounds like a normal question, and if they're on a party or such, that can be difficult.

Not to mention that if she's a biology student, the info that koalas are marsupials probably makes it quicker to her head than the realization that he's joking.
