  • A koala eagerly watches from a tree massive goannas fighting in Aussie bush
  • The user who posted the video joins curious koala in watching the brawl
  • The fight took place somewhere under the gum-trees near Maree, NSW 
  • The cause of the brawl and the triumphant goanna are yet to be confirmed

A laid-back koala secured the best front row branch it could find in order to watch two massive goannas go head-to-head in the Australian bush.  

Facebook user, Simon Cheatham, joined the curious koala as they both eagerly watched the fight in intense anticipation.

First we see the gum-tree goer high up in the tree eagerly watching the whole scene play out. The camera then pans down to show two valiant goannas going neck and neck at each other.

Scroll down for video.

The two huge goannas used their back legs and long tails as props in the fight - but it seems both were evenly matched in their weight, height and agility. 

The two Aussie goannas continued to claw at each other until the end of the video.

This reason behind the fight is unknown and the triumphant goanna is yet to be determined. 

The brawl took place somewhere underneath the gumtrees near Moree in New South Wales.  

The video was recorded just after Christmas in 2018 by Mr Cheatham.
