Animals in the News

My, my. Some Australian animals have been getting some attention in the past few days.

In one of the more amusing stories I've seen in awhile, a koala set to be stolen and exchanged for drugs scratched the hell out of its potential captors. In turn, the thieves took to the friendlier species: a freshwater croc.

And yesterday, a crazy rooster took to the neck of a young girl. This is more notable for the awesome about of Aussie slang used by her uncle.
