Dropbears are very dangerous... Here in Australia you have to be very 
careful when walking through wooded areas because they lurk in the trees 
and then drop on you. Hence the name dropbears. I think they are closely 
related to Koala but carnivorous. Along with Hoopsnakes it's amazing 
anyone in Australia get's to live a full lifetime.

I was not suprised to google 'dropbear' and find it was based in 
Australia. http://matt.ucc.asn.au/*dropbear*/*dropbear*.html
