AUSTRALIAN BUSHFIRE KOALA VICTIM: Mystery Girl

Mystery Girl (MG) came in to care last night from the bushfire zone. She is exhausted & dehytdrated, after going through days of extreme heat and then the HELL of a bushfire. She was cared for by MICHELLE THOMAS, Wildlife Warrior, whose family often shares their home with her often severely injured charges. Michelle explains what wildlife go through in bushfires & their needs. PLEASE DONATE to ANIMALIA WILDLIFE SHELTER http://www.animaliawildlife.org.au ... URGENT FUNDS ARE NEEDED for the ongoing care of our injured, native wildlife.

How is she doing?

[mobilejourno]

MG is doing much better. I went around this moring and she is out of the washing basket and in with another koala.

They have had more come in. The rescuers are now in Kilmore, and when the embers have subsided will be going into the newest hotspot in Taggerty ... where the animals are coming out in droves. They need donations to support this effort. A lot of rescuers homes have gone in the fires ....

Just thinking about the ones that died makes me really sad.

I'm spreading the word, and I've donated to two charities so far. As far as I'm concerned, the more people that donate, the less pressure each individual will feel to give their life savings.
