Gotta agree with you there. Anyone that pays attention to urban legends would know about "drop bears" from the time the legend was created. People made up the myth on account of camping trips in which the koalas would make that cackling growling noises (think the Predator's growl) that gave campers a good scare. Every now and then, a koala would fall unto the tents of campers, likened to being an attack. From there, Australians have added their own spin on what these new mythical beings were, for the sake of making fun of tourists who go out camping.

You're kidding me!

Why was I convinced otherwise? I must have read some BS somewhere on Facebook or Instagram.

I can't believe this. I've been terrified by these animals too! Bloody Hell! 😔


Drop bears are subject to be made into an Australian horror movie. There is no truth to them other than the urban legend. I was aware of the legend status since I had heard of them as a child.


Horror movies? That's more a "boy" thing. I certainly won't watch anything under that genre. 😩🥺

We girls tend to go for comedy or romance ... or even courtroom dramas. 😎


From July to about November, I tend to watch a horror movie per night. This year features the final "Halloween" movie to be released in October. There is nothing wrong with having your senses tested in a good horror movie.

Why are people not allowed to shoot and kill the feral/wild/dangerous ones?

I'm (clearly) a city gal but I believe these particular feral/wild/dangerous koalas are called drop bears.

These ferocious animals are known to target humans and suddenly drop onto them causing serious harm. Death even 😩😔🥺


The Aborigines are allowed to hunt these native species even the cute cuddly ones.

The lefties like the Greens make all sorts of claims with genocide etc with Aborigines yet their numbers have been growing so no they aren't endangered.

The Aborigines are allowed to hunt our native species under some native title BS.

Yes!!!

Ok...let me tell you about my Chinese neighbours (I've often talked about them on OzPol). They're filthy rich (and very left wing) and are hardly ever in Sydney as they use their $4 million home next door to me as a type of holiday home. Anyway that's the background info on who they are ... well they have most of their relatives living back home in China in places like Wuhan (a wealthy commercial city apparently) and they have cousins there who work in the wet markets which opened back within months of the 1st Covid19 outbreak. Koala bears are sold as food for the Chinese in wet markets and are bred for that purpose.

Essentially someone imported a few from Australia to then breed for Chinese wet markets there. They are killed fresh on the spot in front of the prospective buyer.

Koala bears - Australian animals. Supposedly endangered.

And left wing countries like China who has billions of people are eating these Australian koala bears.

I would call them "koala bears" in my childhood. I stopped calling them "bears" before I was a teenager. When the Americans visited the town in the early 2000s, I saw some of them at the Botanical Gardens. We had a koala enclosure to look at, near the lagoon. An American started calling out to the koala "Koala-wala-wala bear". My friend and I just looked at each other with knowing winks. But, we did not say anything, out of not wanting to be rude or smart arses.

Only in the enunciation of calling them "koala bears".

Koalas, however, are on the endangered species list, after last year's reclassification of their numbers. There might be only less than 100,000 of them nowadays. I usually heard a koala growling in the neighbourhood nearby. The dogs were constantly barking at it. I do not hear it anymore.
