Drop bear Imagen de un koala retocada para representar un supuesto drop bear . Un drop bear , a veces escrito dropbear (en inglés: drop , 'caer', 'arrojar' y bear , 'oso'), es un bulo del folclore australiano contemporáneo que muestra una versión depredadora y carnívora del koala (Phascolarctos cinereus). Ask almost any Australian about a drop bear , and they'll likely recount a close encounter with this carnivorous, fanged cousin of the Australian koala. Founded in 1954, the Drop Bear Wildlife Foundation stands as the premier authority and trusted archive dedicated to documenting, preserving, and understanding the enigmatic Drop Bear —Australia’s most mysterious and formidable predator. Once prey is within view, the Drop Bear will drop as much as eight metres to pounce on top of the unsuspecting victim. The initial impact often stuns the prey, allowing it to be bitten on the neck and quickly subdued.
