Sam the Koala - meets her saviour. Up date 11-02-09

R.I.P little koala angel Sam. Your right gottaliv, we should all be happy that she lived. She's in a better place now.

What a lot of trust wee Sam gave to her helpers. I followed her story from day one. Rest in peace Sam. Your carers must be in a lot of pain when you died.

So sad , RIP, little Sam,
And sincere condoleances to those who helped her, and of course to 'Bob' the male koala, her boyfriend, always close to her.

RIP Sam:( You are now in koala heaven:(

This is so sad, i didn't know Sam had died till i watched this video.
I so love the video of her drinking the water from the firefighters bottle, bless her.

Sam's final resting place of honour will be in the Melbourne Museum right next to Phar Lap.

"The story of Sam will help us to understand and remember the devastation that the events of February 2009 had on the people of this state and their extraordinary determination to recover and move forward with their lives."

Her spirit will live on in the people to whom she was very important, we won't forget her.

What a tragic loss, thank you to all that helped pull her through she did not die in vain you all are truly angels sent by god to help our animals, she's now playing in heavens trees with all her koala friends that were lost in the fires. You can rest now sweet little sam you're free from pain and suffering
