Rules of attraction

A female Australian cattle herder has attracted unwanted attention from a peculiar angle. The woman was riding a quad bike while herding dairy cattle for milking when a koala bear started pursuing her.

Luckily the woman was able to elude her pursuer without harm to either herself, or the errant koala.
