A woman has escaped serious injury after a supposedly adorable koala attacked her by the side of the road in Queensland.
The unfortunate encounter was captured by onlookers on Thursday as the woman slowly approached the koala on a busy motorway.
In the video captioned 'talking to a drop bear gone wrong', the marsupial lunged at the woman as she slowly greeted the animal.
