bears are commonly said to be unusually large, vicious, carnivorous koalas
that inhabit treetops and attack their prey by dropping onto their heads
from above.[2] They are an example of local lore intended to frighten and
confuse outsiders and amuse locals, similar to the jackalope, hoop snake,
wild haggis, or snipe hunt.

Q: I have a question about a famous animal in Australia, but I forget its
name. It's a kind of bear and lives in trees. (USA)
A: It's called a Drop Bear. They are so called because they drop out of gum
trees and eat the brains of anyone walking underneath them. You can scare
them off by spraying yourself with human urine before you go out walking.
Q: Can you give me some information about hippo racing in Australia? (USA)
A: A-fri-ca is the big triangle shaped continent south of Europe. Aus-tra-
lia is that big island in the middle of the pacific which does not... oh
forget it. Sure, the hippo racing is every Tuesday night in Kings Cross.
Come naked.
Q: Can you send me the Vienna Boys' Choir schedule? (USA)
A: Aus-tri-a is that quaint little country bordering Ger-man-y, which is...
oh forget it. Sure, the Vienna Boys Choir plays every Tuesday night in Kings
Cross, straight after the hippo races. Come naked. |
