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. The woman was concerned for her safety as the animal has sharp claws and accelerated away, with the koala also speeding up in hot pursuit. Luckily the woman was able to elude her pursuer without harm to either herself, or the errant koala.
