Koala crashes house, tries its best to climb up a dancing pole
Koalas are great at eating eucalyptus and getting belly rubs. Dancing? Not so much.
Perhaps this little fella climbing up a pole is trying to challenge the lazy reputation of one of Australia's most well-known and beloved animals.
It was captured in a video uploaded to Facebook on June 30 by Nikki Erickson, who explained in the description that she came home from work hoping to "dance the shitty day away" when the discovery of the creature "turned her day around."

"She sat there while I talked to her and took photos and did not growl once," Erickson wrote. Unfortunately for this koala, who may have mistook the pole for a tree, going for a climb didn't work out so well.
The koala was eventually rescued by the folks at Queensland's Daisy Hill Conservation Park and given the name "Larissa," according to the Huffington Post.
"They made sure she was ok and in good condition, then released her," Erickson told the publication. "They sent me an email the following day to let me know."
Just another one of those "only in Australia" moments, yet again.
