What is Drop Bear?
1.
A native to the australian outback, the drop bear is a mysterious, yet chillingly savage member of the marsupial family. If you are unlucky enough to pitch a tent under a tree inhabited by a drop bear, and rouse it from it's slumber, be prepared for pain country! It will drop from the tree, latching onto your face (a la the facehugger from the alien)and proceeds to rid you of any good looks you may (or may not) have once had.
Only known deterrant is a generous smearing of vegemite behind the ears. It saved me once and I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
"Quick Bazza, grab the '303 mate! Wazza and Macca got drop bears on 'em and are runnin round like headless chooks!!"

The drop bear is characterised by it's unusual defense mechanism - when the male senses danger, the drop bear glides or 'drops' down from it's perch and uses it's powerful hind spur to barb the enemy's eyes.

A really old Australian prank. Aussies will tell to gullible foreigners and tourist to beware of "drop bears" that lurk in the treetops and drop down onto its victims face and gouge their eyeball. They then tell them that you can deter attacks with stupid remedies suck as putting forks in your hair and smearing spreads behind your ear and making them look like idiots.
