Just when you though Oz couldn't get any deadlier along comes the Drop Bear. It's a terrifying new species of koala, unknown to Americans, that has been discovered.
The drop bear is a mean little bastard with fangs and also rumored to spew venom. Totally unknown to Americans.
It stalks it's foreign prey, especially Americans, from high up in the trees, dropping on them when they least expect it.
Unfortunately for the world the drop bear only attacks those without an Ozzie accent. It even can tell those American and British fake ozzie accents apart from the real thing, so don't try it.
Having said that, have a look at this graphic video of attacks & sightings. NSFW. Beware. Do not show children. Don't watch while high. Hold your loved one close and proceed. You've been warned!
I definitely will be re-thinking my opal hunting trip to Oz now. Is there anything in that country that won't kill you?
Thanks for reading!
