Tourists beware, that's the sign of a dropbear about to kill.

[–]perseaamericana 28 points29 points ago

Nah, most of the time it's just a sign that the dropbear is about to pee on you. Only 1 out of 9 times does it kill.

Bull shit, I can name at least four legit reasons.

Everyone in Sydney always seems to bitch and moan about Australia but it's not near as bad as any of them make out. In fact, I'd go so far as saying it's pretty top of the list for places to be.

[–]Bellemy 3 points4 points ago*

I've had 4 international buddies decide to make the move to Sydney over the last few years, some are what I'd classify as well travelled, but all agree it is by far the best place to live. Makes me feel pretty proud :D

However... My personal take? The entirety of Western Sydney should be purged from this earth. Worst mistake of my life moving here :|

Fun fact: After you have a touched a koala, your hand smells of eucalyptus.

You see my wife up in that tree? That tree over there, top right. That's my fucking wife, but that's not my tree. You know who's tree that is, huh? Do you know who lives in that tree? A fucking lizard. A fucking lizard lives in that tree.....I'm gonna kill her. I'm gonna fucking kill that cheating bitch. I'm gonna walk up to that tree and kill that fucking bitch.

I remember the first time I touched a Koala at this zoo thing on Phillip Island... the stink of eucalyptus was intense. It was horrible, I hate that smell.

[–]hollywoodbob 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Due to their unique physiology, after feeding on brains dropbears enter a nearly catatonic state to allow their body to metabolize fully their meal. A similar state can be seen in humans shortly after consuming large quantities of turkey and pie.

I imagine a koala dressed up like a pilgrim would be adorable...

[–]sumdog -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I was thinking the same thing. I though Koalas were still bears... don't they attack humans in the wild?

[–]MonkeyCrumpets 7 points8 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Na Koalas are unrelated to bears as far as I know. They're also too lazy to actually attack a human unless the human is dumb enough to climb a eucalyptus tree and try to pat it. They can be pretty aggressive if they're cornered though.

The real threat are Drop Bears. They're closely related to the Koala (though they're much larger) and will attack almost anything that is unlucky enough to wander under the wrong tree...

[–]MisterSquidz 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Koalas are marsupials, not bears. They're more closely relate to possums than bears.

Koalas use this to overcome potential predators with squee... then they go in for the kill with their vicious claws. Sneaky cute koalas are sneaky cute.

That is at the Koala park just outside of Sydney. Been there, done that.

Koalas look cute but they have hard bristly fur and they absolutely stink like shit. The eucalyptus they eat seeps from their skin.

Not sure if it's like this for other aussies... But I'm just so unimpressed with our native animals lol >.<

The kangaroo (is a pest)

The emu (Look at it! I've never seen something so useless)

The koala (great. A motionless furball that reeks of piss)

The wombat (nobody ever sees these unless they're roadkill)

The platypus (Seriously, did someone just stick the spare parts of other animals together?)

The only one remotely awesome is the dingo .... and it apparently eats babies.

I just moved here. What the fuck are those nocturnal animals on the tress at night. At first I was like, "Squirrel" following by "...that's not a Squirrel. I don't even know if that's related to rodents at all." They're huge!

[–]Bellemy 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

HA! Sounds like a possum :D They're pretty menacing if they decide to set up camp in your roof. With the thumping and the screeching all night lol

[–]sumdog 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Wow...they don't look like North American possums. ... ... after some searching on the web, it seems that North American possums are actually "opossums" and although they are both marsupials, they're not closely related at all.

[–]MisterSquidz 1 point2 points ago

Maybe they're rodent of unusual size.

You are definitely on the far left of the bell curve. It's probably better if you just move over seas to a mega city. You'd fit in better there.
