Man Comes Back To His Car To Find An Unexpected Furry Guest Chilling In His AC

Man Comes Back To His Car To Find An Unexpected Furry Guest Chilling In His AC

Winemaker Tim Whitrow was spending a pretty typical day out in the vineyard checking on his grapes when he left his car door open so his dog could come and go from the air conditioning as she pleased.

When he got back in the car he had a furry passenger, but it wasn't the dog they he was expecting.


When Whitrow turned around and looked into his back seat, there was a koala chilling back there, presumably enjoying the AC!

Koalas' thick fur and dark gray skin means that they don't handle high temperatures well, and they have even been known to suffer heat stroke and heat exhaustion.

Whitrow couldn't help but snap a selfie with the koala before he attempted to remove it from the vehicle.

Whitrow said on Facebook that it wasn't easy to evict his unwanted passenger.

"As I was moving to another part of the vineyard I noticed that someone else was also in the car enjoying the A/C. It took a fair bit of convincing to get the feisty little fella out."

Whitrow got a pretty fascinating video of the little guy:


His dog Maisie was quite intrigued by the Koala too:



Facebook loved the fuzzy intruder and the way Tim handled it:

It would seem that getting unwanted, mildly violent, koala visitors is a theme in Australia.

Many non-Australians were quite surprised at the koala's behavior.

We're Pretty Sure We Now Know Why FIFA Gave Trump A 'Peace Prize'—And Yep, That Tracks

After President Donald Trump was presented with FIFA's inaugural “FIFA Peace Prize,” a gold medal and oversized trophy that, notably, arrived just months after he failed to secure a Nobel Peace Prize, the U.S. Justice Department suddenly announced that it was dropping an international soccer bribery case—to the surprise of no one.

During the ceremony, FIFA President Gianni Infantino heaped praise on Trump, saying the honor recognized his "exceptional and extraordinary actions to promote peace and unity around the world.”

Trump Official Tries To Claim Antifa Is Top National 'Threat'—Then Flails Over Simple Questions

Michael Glasheen, the operations director of the National Security Branch, was criticized after he told members of Congress that Antifa is "the most immediate violent threat" to the U.S. and could not answer simple questions to justify his claim.

Antifa is a loose network of anti-fascist activists with no central structure, no funding, no membership roster, and no offices or leadership hierarchy for prosecutors to target. Despite this, President Donald Trump recently signed an executive order declaring it a "domestic terror organization," a move that's been celebrated by his supporters.

Her solo work like "What You Waiting For?" continued themes of frustration, identity, and breaking female stereotypes.

Viral Video Of Lauren Boebert Arguing With Bouncer At George Santos' Holiday Party Is All Kinds Of Cringe

Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert was widely mocked after she was caught on video trying to get her congressional aides into a holiday party hosted by disgraced former New York Republican Representative George Santos in Washington, D.C., after the bouncer denied them entry.

Santos' political career was derailed by allegations of fabricating his background, misusing campaign funds for luxury items and Botox, and leaving a trail of victims behind him as a known fraud and identity thief. He has been soaking up attention since President Donald Trump commuted his prison sentence a couple of months ago.

Amanda Seyfried Refuses To Back Down After Calling Charlie Kirk 'Hateful': 'I'm Not F—king Apologizing'

Actor Amanda Seyfried said she has no plans to apologize after calling the assassinated far-right activist Charlie Kirk "hateful," telling Who What Wear that she merely "said something that was based on actual reality and actual footage and actual quotes."

Kirk was assassinated in September while speaking at a university in Utah; the suspect was caught after a two-day manhunt and has since been charged. The Trump administration has used Kirk's murder as an opportunity to crack down on free speech and to target leftists even though the shooter is aligned with the far-right.
