while this is ridiculously cute, i have to admit that every time i see a koala, i am ruined by a statistic i read about years ago.

the majority of wild koalas in australia have chlamydia.

They also usually have yellow asses from their urine, and stink of exactly how you'd imagine the urine of an animal that eats eucalyptus leaves to smell.

Also they are terrifyingly violent to humans if they get too stressed. Those claws are powerful.

That did not ruin koalas for me I actuly respect and love koalas alot more now because..well that was AWESOME!!!....but I do feel a little sorry for the koala that was attacked but....you got to admit he had it coming to him I mean he was bugging the crap out of the other one.

Wow that got weird fast, about 1 minute in. I wonder why koalas sound like that and isolate themselves in that state. Possibly to scare away predators?

As an Australian, all I can think of when Koalas come up as cute karma bait is 'you fools!'

I have had the displeasure of holding a koala. Never again.

Exactly. It's wiggling its ears as a warning signal for the shit that's about to go down.

That's not a koala. It's a dropbear. Common mistake.

I've been to that same park in Australia, and have a very similar picture; I forget the name, but the name of the koala I pet was Charlie, not sure if that's the same one.

The only reason that girl isn't being raped by that koala is because he is high...like STONED OF HIS FACE high.

All I see is a lemming (asian tourist) about to become another Koala casualty.
