This is the bizarre story of Bhura Yadav in Shahdol, India, who may as well be dubbed the human koala because the 50-year-old Yadav has been eating eucalyptus leaves for 40 years now.

As a young boy, the cattle farmer would go to forested areas with his cows and munch on leaves like his bovine brethren.

Despite eucalyptus being poisonous for humans to ingest, Yadav said he's not had any health issues, although doctors warn him of liver problems from the leaves.
