      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

      @@debbieacushing5536 I know a sick animal when I see one. 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 🥲

      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.

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.

We can however PREVENT forest fires by cutting trees and creating clearings. When nature decides to clear some space, she does it very dramatically. 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.

The koala may have been traumatized; he was lethargic and his sadness and loneliness broke my heart. I hope the koala recuperates at a sanctuary and eventually released in an area where he can find new family and friends. Sweet and poignant video, especially when one is having a difficult day.

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.

He is so lucky that you two came along! You are both so compassionate, and you didn't just abandon him! Thank you so much for what you did for the little Koala! You will someday be rewarded in kind! Good journey to you both! SINCERELY, MARTHA

      I agree. The koala saw death and desolation all around him. You can see he perked up a bit when he was in the car. He got happy and when they left him by the tree, he was distraught all over again. Poor baby. I'm glad he was saved.

      @christyzeeaquarianated2600 Рік тому +10

      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.
