Seen taking a stroll among the locals, the koala could not have been less fazed by the people milling around as he made his way through the crowded street like a total boss.
This guy is so relaxed, he even stopped for a photo-op when a child approached him with a camera to snap his picture, acting as if it’s something that happens all the time in his koala day.
Honestly, maybe it is, considering that this particular area of Australia is known for having a large population of koalas living amongst the trees in the city’s outskirts. Sightings are far from uncommon, but along the main strip they’re admittedly more rare.
The curious marsupial was able to get through the admiring throngs without anyone reaching out to touch him or feed him, which is great. Though ridiculously cute , koalas are wild animals and should not be interacted with for the sake of both their safety and yours.
In this instance, Captain Adorable was doing just fine and eventually made it back to the safety of a tree, but if you see an animal that appears to be in distress, always contact the proper authorities to give the animal professional assistance.
