【Germany】
Not all Australian animals will kill you with their venom or Germanysharp teeth; some will smash your heart into tiny pieces instead.
Exhibit A: One mother koala casually strolling down a leafy suburban street, with her baby clinging to her back like an adorable fluffy jockey. While piggybacking is the preferred method of toddler koala transport, this particular odd instance was caught on camera by a stunned human.

He sent the footage to his wife Emma Barry, who promptly posted it to Instagram for the public to collectively "ooh" and "aww."

The koala, unaware of the adorable spectacle she was creating, looked up to the camera half way down the footpath, as if to address Petlak with a curt "can I help you?" before making her merry way along the path; babe on back and all.
Petlak spoke with ABCsaying that after he stopped recording "she [the koala] went down the driveway of the house and headed to their garden. Such a beauty!"
At five to six months of age, koala joeys crawl out of their mother's pouch and climb onto her back. The joey will normally stay up there until their first birthday when mum decides it's time for the freeloading to end, and for the joey to make a life of their own -- climbing and walking down footpaths for themselves.
