This little koala was left alone by his mother, cause she was disorientated and distressed by the heat, and is now becoming a star on the internet. A woman in Australia found the koala under her veranda shaking and looking sick. She and her family gave him some water out of a bowl and eventually the koala climbed in itself...

Found at the UK Daily Mail.

Koala saved from Australian bushfire


Picture by Mark Pardew/AP Photo

This gorgeous koala was rescued in a burned-out forest, about 90 miles east from Melbourne. Firefighter David Tree was in the middle of backburning at Mirboo North when he saw the stricken koala.

"I could see she had sore feet and was in trouble, so I pulled over the fire truck. She just plonked herself down, as if to say 'I'm beat'," he said.

"I offered her a drink and she drank three bottles.

"The most amazing part was when she grabbed my hand. I will never forget that."

The koala, named Sam by caretakers, was put on an IV drip and is on antibiotics and pain relief treatment.

Carer Jenny Shaw said Sam suffered burns on her paws and was in a lot of pain, but was on the road to recovery.

Found at the Herald Sun.

Otter rescued by postman



The BBC is reporting about a Scottish postman that saved a 6-week-old otter from the roadside and took her on a 220-mile tour in his postbag.

From the BBC News - Scotland

Postman Kenny Wilson:"She was frozen and I did not give her much of a chance to be honest.
"It looked as if she had either been abandoned or her mother had been hit by a car."
Mr Wilson said the otter had come from the nearby Gala Water and "looked terrified from the noise of the cars and would soon have been hit".
"I popped her into the mailbag I had in the car and carried on up the A7 and just kept hearing little squeaks and sucking noises to imply she was hungry," he said.
"I stopped at Tesco at Dalkeith and bought some kitten milk and fed it through the tube of a ballpoint pen.
"She seemed happy enough and during our journey she kept crawling up my neck looking for more warmth."
