Likely Story

Oh, sure; tree kangaroos. Next thing, you'll be telling me there's such a thing as drop bears.

Believe it or not, people have tried to tell me there's no such thing as snipes and jackalopes, which is just crazy, because I've seen those stuffed jackalopes in gas stations and truck stops all over the Southwest. So there.

Oh, I've seen a jackalope. Let's see, now...I was living in Arizona and driving home from a New Year's Eve party...

This is right up there with the mythical fiscal conservatives on the Republican National Committee.....and you find those strong drink, let me tell you!

Jackalopes tend to live near bars, from all the evidence I've seen.

And don't even get me started on those toothed ducks...

What Thommo failed to mention is that Drop Bears have a strong preference for hitchhikers, mainly English and female. Drop Bears that have assimilated into suburban life often find their way to low hanging branches over the beer gardens in suburban pubs. Where English female hitchhikers can be found in Summer in large groups, usually well oiled, 3 or 4 sheets to the wind and with limited clothing. All these factors make them easy clobber for the Drop Bears.
Drop Bears, along with sharks, spiders, snakes, crocodiles, fatal sea wasps and the double headed dingo are all part of the great fabric that is Australia. Mehaul.

Of course Drop Bears exist, Paco! Ash has a piccie of one here, and there was coverage of an attack here.

Mehaul is 100% correct. Jackalopes, though, well... that's a whole 'nother kettle o' sea kittens.

Wiz. You're right. I forgot to mention that Pets And Customised Orthodontics now supply fitted mouth gums for drop bears. When defanged they are just the cutest, most cuddleable lil varmits any tourist could imagine. Mehaul.
