I found this online today and thought it was too much of a gorgeous animal story to not post for those that haven't seen it.
 What a gorgeous little koala, she must have been sooooo hot. ____ A baby koala who was abandoned by her mother in Victoria's heatwave has been dubbed 'Star' after finding internet fame. A family in Maude, near Geelong, photographed the young female koala taking a dip after finding her on their verandah, shaking and distressed. http://www.theage.com.au/national/heatwave...90205-7yav.html --------------------  |

Wow - I meant to post this.
My uncle sent it to me - they were his friends. I didn't know it had become famous!! lol Isn't it gorgeous! We found a little possum hiding under the pram on our verandah on the Friday. I gave it a drink but couldn't get close enough to wet it down.

That's so cute! Funny, I just got this emailed to me, and I thought it was going to be the same thing... but it wasn't! Poor Koalas - must be so hot for them
 It would have to be bloody hot for them to be so tame about approaching people!  --------------------    "I've got my Love and Family too. Nothing I'd change, I'm cool" |

The poor little thing - I agree it must have been so hot to approach people. I hope they cope today with our 43 degrees. I wonder what people overseas would think about this pics. They might think that our koala's are so tame they wander up and ask for drinks and swims in our pools.  -------------------- |
