Anorexic Koala

I was in line at the drug store, and came across this little fellow in the checkout lane. Advertised as a lovable, hugable creature, this poor koala contains so little stuffing that he appears to be suffering from a terrible eating disorder. Here he is, lying down:

koala-1

He just caves in on himself when he tries to sit up.

koala-2

And now for the worst part…the spine:

koala-3

Let’s hope koalas like this one don’t infiltrate the media, or koalas in the wild may start depriving themselves of Eucalyptus leaves in hopes of attaining an impossible ideal. My maternal instinct got the better of me, and I spent the dollar to bring him home.

  1. Awww…I would have done the same and brought him home. Poor thing. This little guy reminds me of the stuffed koala my sister had when we were kids. Of course Jamie’s was a big pot-bellied koala who probably could have shared his sandwich with his malnourished cousin here.
