AFP: Timberwolf the koala was lucky to be alive Monday after surviving a terrifying 88-kilometre (54.5-mile) ride down a busy Australian freeway clinging 1 to the bottom of a car.
澳洲考拉
The four-year-old male, who survived with nothing more than a torn nail, was struck by the vehicle near Maryborough in Queensland state on Friday.
The Australia Zoo wildlife hospital said it latched 2 onto the bottom of the car as it sped away, with the family inside not knowing they had a marsupial 3 on board.
It was only when they stopped in Gympie after a high-speed freeway drive that they noticed it, and called the hospital for help. The maximum speed on the freeway is 110 kilometres per hour.
