Mistaking my urbane metrosexual scent for eucalyptus, a rare female Giant Koala attacked me at the Sydney Zoo. These are normally shy creatures, except "when aroused by overwhelming levels of irresistible male scent...or simply hungry for human flesh," according to the surprisingly unsympathetic zookeeper, who said she didn't really care which of the 2 caused this attack. "Less Yanks the better," I swear I heard her mumble.Luckily, the Giant Koala is toothless, so it was like being gummed by a large teething baby.
Later at the Zoo Pub I recovered with my friend Joey, who's been depressed lately.
OK, this picture isn't actually for April Fools Day, as it's real. Really.
Tree Kangaroo, Cutest Creature on Earth?
