Freeloader Koala Survives 10 Mile Journey Clasping To SUV's Suspension


A koala somehow survived a 10-mile journey (16 km) clinging to the suspension of an SUV in Adelaide, Australia.

Earlier this week, the furry Australian icon hitched a ride through the mountainous Adelaide Hills region without the driving having the slightest idea of the uninvited passenger.

It wasn’t until they were flagged down by other motorists that the driver pulled over and made the discovery. Firefighters were only able to free the koala after taking off the wheel.

Speaking to the media, Fauna Rescue SA employee Jane Brister said the koala only suffered minor injuries.

“You think you've seen it all, no, I've never seen anything like that. And it's absolutely incredible,” she said.

Just another day in Australia…
