Deep breaths everybody. Today unequivocally sucks big time with some truly horrific things happening across the globe, and with the non-stop 24-hour news cycle of the digital age, it’s sometimes hard to disconnect.
So please join us here for a brief while and behold this grumpy lil’ koala, who got himself stuck up a huge drill on a worksite in Adelaide.
Old mate, who is said to be “known” to local Fauna Rescue (OMG R U FAMOUS?), made his way up the giant drill rig and was having a chill nap when some pesky humans decided a 10m high metal platform was no place for a koala. Rude imho.

7 News Adelaide has the exclusive footage of our sleepy new best mate, who looks generally pissed off that his nanna nap was being interrupted.
*sweet koala dreams continue*
“The fuck is this shit…”
The film crew also captured the moment he was reluctantly nabbed by fire rescue dudes:

He tried to reach the stars and this is how we treat him? Perhaps truly, it is humans who are the real animals. #MakesYouThink.
