I was going to make a joke about drop bears, but Hugh seems to have that front covered.

I thought koalas were supposed to be cuddly lovable critters. Is that just a misnomer?

Hugh used to help out a mate back in the days doing Koala rescue, and the first thing they are taught is that you are to be very careful when approaching an injured wild koala. They've got claws and are actually quite quick on the ground. Their public image of sleepy, cuddly animals can be deceiving ;)

The Koala marketing team is incredible.

The captive ones in Dreamworld etc are so drugged up they don't know what the fuck they're doing. Most of them think they're wombats.

P.S. The magic number has been 181 for the last couple of days. Maybe it won't go up much higher.

Koalas: their fury is more captivating and imminent than a huge fire.
