Koala Visits Pharmacy

Occurred on August 4, 2017 / Tocumwal, NSW, Australia

Info from Licensor: "As I was dispensing scripts at the Tocumwal Pharmacy I heard a car beep driving past and looked up to see a koala sitting at the front door waiting to come in. A customer was walking towards the door and as the door opened the koala walked in to do some local shopping after having made the short 150 metre walk from the treetops by the Murray River. The koala was very relaxed and friendly and walked around the store for around 10 minutes. The local vet's wife was next door at IGA supermarket and called her husband who then contacted the right people for advice. We were advised to let it do its thing and the koala left the pharmacy. The local community escorted the koala safely down the street where it was happy to climb up the nearest tree at the post office."
