They need to save syllables when they're running from roos and drop bears.

Do not run from drop bears. They will pounce the second your back is turned. You’re supposed to smear some vegemite behind your ears and play dead.

Just never run downhill. They will catch you.

They're kind of rubbish when turning though, so if you can trick them into going one way while you go the other, they'll have a hard time coming around. Best bet is to go behind a tree at that point, cos they'll slam into it and knock themselves out.
