Meeniyan supermarket appearance charms staff and shoppers as expert calls to make urban environments ‘less hostile’
A confused koala has surprised staff and customers at a regional IGA supermarket after he wandered through the store’s front doors and made his way through the aisles.
Shervell said that while there is a prominent koala population around the local area – frequenting trees along a bicycle path or the occasional back yard – to encounter one inside a business was rare. Ellis said that deforestation was likely to play a role in driving koalas to irregular locations, due to the “squeeze on for space”.
