Crocs are for wusses

SMH story: thieves broke into a Rockhampton zoo and tried to steal a koala. But the koala proved to be too vicious for them, so they stole a 40-kg crocodile instead and climbed a 2.4-metre fence with it.

(Those with more than a passing familiarity with koalas may be aware that this isn't as silly as it sounds. The thieves were caught, but the crocodile is still missing, having been traded for drugs.)

as far as vicious aussie animals go, I'd rate cockatoos no.1. and koala's 2nd.
