"Thankyou Drop Bear Aware! I can't say enough to show my appreciation for the understanding and appreciation Drop Bear Aware has given me about the wild Australian bush."
"Not only did I gain an understanding of these magnificent but deadly creatures, but I had peace of mind during my travels in Australia. I definitely saw not one single drop bear during my visit and I feel this is largely thanks to Drop Bear Aware! All the best guys."
Oliver - Niedersachsen, Germany

Although many would argue that Drop Bears are fictional, and we would agree to some extent, there are some unexplained cases which should alert the more savvy tourist.

Here at Drop Bear Aware, our team have brought together over 200 suspicious reports which identify drop bear hot spots.
Whilst we don't recommend you avoid these regions altogether, due caution and alertness is recommended in these areas, especially if you are from Germany, Thailand, Canada or New Zealand.
