It’s likely the poor animal lost its family in a fire. Hopefully it is being looked after and has some happiness restored.

Yet dehydration & hunger = severe ill health & Likely Severe Headache. We must consider headaches more often with all animals. (Animals’ headaches reminds me too of the terrible constricting “shirt” claimed to calm dogs, which forces shallow breathing. Likely it is inflicting headaches that cause dogs to be still. It hasn’t been ruled out.) I’m also thankful for the kindness in this video for the defenseless. Nothing is more important

You know, back in the day adults would say to kids that animals don't feel pain / emotion so they wouldn't be upset when the animals went to be slaughtered to feed the family, now we're living in such a surreal time that so-called "scientists" have convinced the masses that animals don't suffer. What a world we live in.. If you want to talk REAL science though, most animals, just like us, produce opioids in their body to combat serious and especially long-lasting pain, even such simple creatures such as earthworms produce these opioids, so yes even an earthworm feels pain & has enough of a mental capability to suffer! Animals also self-medicate by consuming many different plants, from opioid-containing ones to psychadelic mushrooms.

Too weak to eat, too dehydrated to drink properly etc. he was about 2 days from fainting and never waking up, but the last f.. thing he needs is a "family". A family will ruin his instinct and mentally handicap for life.. thus why the owner of the camping ground told them to find a good forest and leave him, not a burned out trunk in a desolate landscape without treating him for dehydration and lung damage. Professional help for animals is about treating physical damage and fucking off from the human race, which includes me and you 🥲

@@awlmut Funny how there can be a thousand different channels dedicated to humanitarian efforts towards humans... and yet, there will always be those select few, barging into the channels specifically dedicated to vulnerable animals... leaving vacuous, pseudo-noble comments to deflect from the content at hand. Clicking on a Dodo video, knowing it's going to show animal-related content and proceeding to complain about the lack of empathy towards humans. Someone's got way too much time on their hands, me thinks. Precious time that could be spent helping the aforementioned humans, perhaps 😉 By the way, I live in a neighborhood sprawling with famished cats and dogs (and coyotes). I've yet to see a single person hand them a few bucks or buy them a meal. I have, however, seen human equivalents receive such acts of kindness though. Funny, isn't it.

When we allow proper logging and forestry to help by cutting down trees and creating clearings, then Mother Nature doesn't have to do it herself like that. That is why cutting down trees when necessary is so important.

Animal transport crates/boxes may seem cruel, but at the end of the day driving a car is dangerous enough without a wild animal freaking out in an enclosed space and potentially causing a car crash that would likely cause its own death, the death/injury of the car diver/occupants and anyone the car happened hit too in the crash. If you are going to do something as risky as bringing a completely wild animal into a car you have to be considerate of the other people on the road as well as other occupants of the car. Even a domesticated animal that has not been mistreated or abandoned can still go a bit nuts inside a car and cause a crash. What's the point in being free range organic nice when the animal ends up dead anyway because you failed to have the sense to be safe? What do you tell the families of the people your car killed or mutilated in the crash? "Oh yeah, I was thinking of playing it safe and keeping him restrained while we were driving on a public road - but then I saw his sweet little face and I just thought f**k it, you only live once!" 😑 Unless you are extremely well versed with an animal and/or you have a barrier to protect the driver you should not do this - it's dangerous for you, it's dangerous for your passengers, and it's dangerous for the animal too.

Dude, koalas are solitary animals. They don't live in packs. This animal was dehydrated, hungry and probably in shock from the bush fires.

@@glamdolly30 You believe it has a family but koalas don't even know the concept of family! The males are so dumb that they will even kill their own offspring, male or female, if they come into their territory once adults. Also I don't know what video you were watching but this koala didn't seek these people out at all! It wandered onto the road, they gave it water then grabbed it, that guy is lucky to not get scratched by its claws the way he picked it up 🤦♀️ A rescuerer generally covers it's head with a towel or blanket then pick it up. If the koala wasn't burnt or injured they should have just left it alone or until other wildlife rescuers went out to monitor the situation in the area. I have been told this myself by WIREs and RSPCA when I've seen injured animals. You note down what area they are in then call them up and they will have the professionals come out to catch them and give medical attention. These two are certainly not heroes but ignorant fools, just like you are believing they did something right by taking a protected species from it's territory. Common sense is no longer common unfortunately!
Fur babies make life worth living. Bless this couple for helping this little one.
Much respect to kind people who take the time to care.

Very sweet story lovely people I hope 🙏 the poor koala 🐨 gets better
Poor thing, so traumatized! You did absolutely the right thing. Don't listen to others. Trust your own instincts. You can feel what the animal feels, act on that response. Koala needs to be in a safe zone for a while. Nature is brutal. Great job!!! Danke schoen!
I really hope the SAD KOALA will SMILE AGAIN !, and my sympathy for the humans that rescued him/her !
Beautiful kind people, we need more kind people in the world.
This poor animal probably lost its family and saw horror. Thank you my German friends for rescuing this precious creature. 🙌💕

Unless that was a eucalyptus tree, he wouldn't have been particularly happy in it. That said, it was smart that the visitors decided to feed him the appropriate food, provide water and get him to a rehabber. The koala was showing signs of physical stress and a rehabber would know how to help him the best. 👍
I can’t even imagine someone could just leave him alone without taking care, it’s so obvious the sad bear was traumatized and needed some comforting, some company after the loss of his whole family. It simply wanted to be in company and feel some connection to some caring individuals. Who knows how long it’s been wandering alone. So thankful they took care.
This little guy was obviously distressed....and you could not of done any more than you did .....a beautiful end result....well done....it's amazing how these little guys will approach people for help when they need it.....great effort....hope you enjoyed your trip and return one day.
Awe, the koala just knew they were gonna help him.
If the world had more people like this, we would have a very happy planet.

Seeing the koala sad & hungry with a burned down habitat just breaks my heart for him and the rest of the animals.
He was feeling lonely, that was why it didn't want to climb up. I cried seeing it sitting under the tree 😢 Thank you for saving this beautiful animal, God bless you 🙏🤎
Thank you dear wonderful humans for helping this sweet koala. ❤️🙏❤️
Aww so glad you could save this poor koala. It must have been so traumatic for him during the fire. So adorable. What an amazing experience. Thanks.

Actually, the camp site owner was correct. Koalas often get kicked out of trees (they can be quite vicious). They have to go find (and claim) another. They'll sit there in the doldrums for a while, but eventually, they'll wander off to find a tree of their own. I'm not saying that the couple did the wrong thing in this instance; taking him to a hospital was the right thing to do, given the fires. I've had to relocate a few Koalas in my time, and typically, moving them to the nearest bushland area is *exactly* what you're supposed to do.
Thank you for helping the Koala! So cute ❤❤❤
Thank you the couple in the video on the behalf of the Koala for being a great representative of the human community and showing kindness!
This is so heartbreaking to see him sitting on the street, looking at his burnt down home, probably also having lost his family. 😪
Poor baby! Thank you for helping him… ❤️🙏
Thank you for helping this sweet boy. He obviously needed your help. I have to say how adorable it was the way he sat in the back seat of the car, just like a child. He will be safe and have a happy and healthy life thanks to your help. 🫶
Thank you for helping him. Hope he is alright and soon gets back into the wild.
Poor little baby. Who knows what horrors he’s seen with the fires. Maybe lost his family. Thank God for these good hearted people that drove there and cared enough to monitor the little dude. You are good people. May you be blessed a hundred fold. ❤️
When he climbed down the tree and was sad ngl made me cry he probably lost his family. And his home due to that huge fire. I'm glad he's getting the help in the end its just very upsetting it needs to happen.
This is truly heartbreaking especially when the koala sitting at the bottom of the tree and staring at you guys seems telling us "don't leave me alone". Thank you for everything to help this poor little innocent koala. You have earned every respect from everyone who view this great video. Thank you
Whoa, feel so sad for the Koala but so happy to see you give him the love and help it needed.
I'm glad they decided not to leave him at the tree, and took him to a team of professionals that will help him.
Such good temporary koala parents ! I'm sure the Koala was traumatized, buy the fire, lack of food and being lonely. No wonder he looked sad, he was sad, but such a trusting cute little fellow.
Well done, saving one of the world's most beautiful creatures is something both of these fine people should justifiably be proud of !
