🐨 Saving Koalas In The 2020 Australian Bushfires
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ม.ค. 2020
- In this special episode of Bondi Vet, we sent Dr Alex Hynes to Adelaide to help efforts to rescue and care for animals impacted by the Australian bushfires.
Dr Alex visited a temporary emergency hospital set up to look after more than 100 koalas that are either orphaned, displaced or injured from one of the worst impacted areas, Cudlee Creek, where at least 25,000 koalas are thought to have perished in bushfires.

Thank you for this very upbeat video. Thank you for keeping us informed. You guys are awesome looking after all of Gods critters. You are doing an awesome job. Bless you...
Bless them... Actually I had hit the unlike button by mistake on this comment..I'm sorry...corrected the mistake and hit the like button
This video made me cry
@@anuragprasad123 thank you 💗
@YHWH*JUDGES*BABYLON You are touched in the head sir... Stop using Gods name in vein also....
@YHWH*JUDGES*BABYLON You are babbling without purpose. First of all, anybody with a message from God himself would be a little more patient. Arrogance, really? Check yourself,. Mr. God does not like over zealous Pride, which is what you display sir.
People can rebuild their homes but these animals can’t.
Humans had their homes destroyed. The koalas (etc.) had their food source destroyed.
That's very true! Animals cannot defend for themselves specially KOALAS. They're so vulnerable and almost extinct!💔🐨🆘🙏🏼🇦🇺
Lucky for these guys Eucalyptus trees actually have seeds that spread and survive fire, so theyll have more of a home than ever in some months
@@coleholden8241 That doesn't tide them over for their immediate need. We get so worked up by disasters but we suffer nothing compared to various species of other animals. Our biggest life losses are due to out own wars.
Not when human are the ones stealing Koala homes to make homes for humans.
I'm sorry for all the people who's lost everything. I do, however, feel even more sorry for the animals, because they can't just move anywhere and rebuild. So many lives lost. So many precious animals hurt or killed. Absolutely heartbroken. And I want to thank a for donating time an knowledge to helping. And money for saving all that can be saved.
I could never do the storm because every time I watch the videos on Australia I cry. I am so deeply saddened by all animals that have died it breaks my heart I am thankful for people like you can go and help please help with animals. Everyone needs to continue to pray for Australia
I agree! Houses and properties can be rebuilt. That's what insurances are for. The only insurance the animals have is their natural habitats. And now most of that has been taken away from them😢
@@annemariefisher1559 ,,,you have a good soul..
I could never be a vet, I couldn't stand losing an animal.
Same
Neither do Vets😔
Yea I would just go anime style and yell “NOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT CEDRIC WHYYYY” and cry and run out the door
Same. I lost a kitty in 2012 and it was horrible
😢 - very touching, helping those 🐨🐨🐨 suffered fr the bushfires 🔥🔥 is really appreciated by all the animals lovers in the world ! 👏💓💓
That fire almost made these sweet babies extinct. Thank you for saving them.
Look at all those gorgeous koalas! This is wonderful, what’s being done.
A LOT!
True, but the ladies also look gorgeous.
@@FourSeasonsHD Hornball
@@ginapocan I know. But it is also admirable that the ladies want to heal the earth.
@@FourSeasonsHD You don't have to exploit them either.
im a child and im praying for my country. Im so thankful that people like you guys are treating them and helping to do whats right. so many of our precious animals have died in these raging bushfire, so many lives have been lost. Thankyou again for doing this. im 11. thank you so much.
Bless your heart, darling. I am praying for you and your country.
Koalas are such lovely animals. They deserve so much love and care. It's sad that their natural habitats are diminishing .
A BIG THANK YOU to all the volunteers!!
Much love from Belgium!
Far away but you are in our thoughts ♥
It’s wonderful that these volunteers are preserving these beautiful koalas, it’s very touching!! Greetings from the USA.
I donated to a koala organization today, while it wasn't a lot, it just breaks my heart what has happened....what an amazing job you all are doing!!!
Hello
You donate what you could afford and every little donate is when it all is summon up a lot. So bless you.
Where can I donate at??
@@KirkLee1983 check the description box to see if they included a link....
@@KirkLee1983 and I may have access a link from beauty news video I watch last week...or the dodo.... Check both channels
I’m glad they finally made people aware of the plight of the animals. Here in the US we’ve had wildfires for the past several years and not once did I hear them talk about the animals.
I’m so glad I’m starting to hear more and more that here in the US we have vets, wildlife careers, etc. who are going over to Australia to help with the animals. Now if they can only get some slow steady rain for a couple of months. 🕷
I always think of all of the poor animals who were killed or injured during the wildfires and you never see anything being done to help them.
@Al Pal Poor also is used meaning arousing pity.
@Al Pal mate, Im an Ozzie, and even I understand. To feel 'poorly' means to be unwell, look it up mate. 'Poor' is the abbrieviation of 'poorly'.
@Al Pal Oh stfu, Just go away.
@Al Pal - Meghan, you're just nuts - p155 off
Those koalas are the most domesticated wildlife I have seen. To allow humans to handle them, feed them... very easy going. Not even many domesticated cat patients behave so nicely.
I do wish the vet nurses got more credit. We can do everything vets do except diagnose, prescribe tx, surgery, and prognosis. All treatments, labs, monitoring, emergency calls, and assisting done by vet nurses.
The Koalas here were burnt, starving and dehydrated, come in a state of shock. Koalas will not normally let humans get too close, and they bite. Plenty of rescuers have been bitten this season. I have koalas in my yard, btw.
@@nordic5490 'Rescuers' will get bitten and scratched if they don't handle the situation properly - and that means time - and we don't have time ! :(
@@nordic5490 thanks for helping!!

Thanks for doing a great job .👍🏼
Much appreciated!
@@jennym007 Your Welcome.
We've been watching this all transpire, feverishly, from here in the U.S. We've had our share of problems with raging fires over the last few year, but NOTHING like this. It is beyond heartbreaking to see it, especially the affects on the beautiful wildlife. We've shed tears, seeing it all. Wishing all our two--legged and four-legged and no-legged friends in Australia a quick release and recovery.
Fires still going but we getting flooding in some parts of Australia now too. Too many extremes going on at once 😢
@@traceybee2024 So sorry. Hope it comes to an end very, very soon. 😢
Thank you, all the volunteers fighting these fires are amazing and beautiful people. We are lucky to live in a country where everyone steps up and cares for each other. Have a lovely day 🤗

The majority (not all but most) of our fires here in Australia are caused by lightning strikes. This happens every year. What makes it worse this year is the current drought and extreme temperatures.
Thank you to everyone thinking of us and our wildlife
R. McBride so true I find Australia are very proud of their wildlife, especially the iconic koala bear 🐻 very heart breaking yet the rescues of all walks of life restore humanity. I think one of the most touching rescue was the lady who rescued the koala and wrapped him in her blouse and sadly he didn’t make it but that lady did everything she could for him just beautiful how much love they show their wildlife. I am in Canada Ontario I was just reading that marineland a park with rides animals whales etc their bears were to be on birth control and one of the bears had 4 cubs the ceo of marine land told staff leave the cubs and let nature take its course which would be the male bears eating the new cubs and one staff member was against that and she was able to rescue 3 of the cubs from the enclosure sadly the 4th was killed before she could get them all to safety so Canada is no better. I think both Canada and the USA and many other countries could learn from the down under.
30 second into the video and I'm already wanting to cry 😭
Hang in there ,its a happy ending...there now ,wasnt it worth it...best wishes from Adelaide not far away from those wonderful people at the Paradise school gym...schools back in two days away.
Our school made a bun sale and all the money went to koalas in Australia that had been hurt
I'm from the Netherlands 🇱🇺 and it was really heartbreaking 😢to see so many 🐨 died or hurt.Glad to see people like u saved them that makes u so proud👌 Greetz of me...Ms.Coby💖💞🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I still can't got over just how many Koalas along with other wildlife has been lost due to someone's stupidity. May God look after those that survived the fires.
@Al Pal
Yes thank you, you answered all my questions. When talking about Trump, you hit the nail on the head. That man never should have gotten the Presidency. I'm a Republican but I did not vote for him. Because of that man, our country is suffering. We've got the Right Wing and Left Wing fighting over the Impeachment and now he's got us on the verge of going to war with Iran. Not matter how we look at it, we will always have crazy people running our countries and there is nothing we can do about it. I pray the fires end soon and everyone can start the healing process. Best Wishes and Prayers from Alabama.
Al Pal
Yes!
And in the Australian Capital Territory they’re cutting fire services And replacing them with public servants who have no fire training because it’s cheaper, not better.
Thank you, Thank you with all my heart for being in the ready for taking care of all the animals in the bush fires. Dr Alex, you are so beautiful and so willing to put yourself out there for the animals. The Koalas are so precious.
I love koalas too much, I don't want them to ever go extinct. Thank you so much for doing this.
The people helping these animals are absolute angels...!
I pray that all of the koalas as well as all animal species and critters joyfully thrive and multiply. 🙂🙏💗
What a lovely expression, thank you!
@@terde9651 🙂💞
I pray that a lot of koalas and other precious animals will be saved.

Awwww, I wish we had koalas in USA! Thank you for all you are doing to save them! Way too many perished inthe fires! Sad!
You are saving an entired species. Thank you all.
My heart is breaking, these beautiful sweethearts! Thank you for going above and beyond! 🙏 ❤️
I have been binge watching these videos and my heart is so broken. If I just had money to help everyone who has helped these beautiful creatures. I cry every day since realizing the depth of the damage that has been done. I tip my hat to all who have done everything to keep them alive. Thank y’all
Women the saviors of the world. The Australian women are fearless.
I’m so happy that you guys are helping the poor helpless animals ❤️❤️
Thanks for saving lives. I see wonderful people taking care of innocent koalas. Every life saved is a gift. I wish you much strength for your further work. Greetings from Hungary🐨🤗🙏❤️🐪🦘
So very sad 25, 000 kaolas killed. Just can't believe this so sad. Thank you to all that are rescuing and caring for all the injured animals. So sad watch them hurt and the burns they sustained from the bushfires
25000 koalas killed was on Kangaroo Island alone, and doesnt count the koals killed in the Adelaide Hills fire in this video.
Thank you sooooo much for saving them! 😍🐨💗
I'm so proud of our vets all coming together to try and save our beautiful wildlife they don't get paid they do it for love Thanks Alex and dr Chris
That God for every single person saving the lives of Animals.
Thats amazing!! Thank you for helping those koalas!! ❤️❤️❤️
Good luck! I hope you will save a lot of koalas 🐨
🙏🐨🤗
I feel so sorry for all the animals who is going trew this. Because it isn't their fault this happen to them it is us the humans fault.. Be safe Bondi ❤️🙏 thanks all of you who help and save these innocent animals ❤️
I mean wildfires can happen naturally too, they aren't always human's fault.
@@obsydian_jay exactly.
In this case, it was. Several people were arrested and charged for Arson.
@@joepesci43 Oh okay
@@joepesci43 yes humans fault. And those people who do this are evil 😠 But climatechange is doing the fires worse.
Thank you for caring for the koalas. The world loves them and your care of them!
Bless you all for your love and care of these precious animals...tears and prayers...💞💞💞
Bondi vet forever
I am so relieved that you guys are there for these helpless koalas !! All that happened in Australia to the people and animals fills my heart with sadness !
Отличный госпиталь, прекрасные люди здесь работают. Спасибо, что спасаете коал - этот милый символ Австралии! ❤ С благодарностью из России! ❤
Thank you Dr.Poli and DrAlex
Thank you so much for your love and care for the adorable Koalas effected by the bush fire
I admire all the care-takers. You guys are real life angels. ❤️
Thank you for all the care that all
of you are giving to Australia's
wonderful little Kaula treasures
One of the cutest animals on the planet.
God Bless you all
I couldn't find a better word than THANK YOU ALL.
Wish u all the best for saving those beautiful animals ❤️❤️
Greettngs from Croatia 😊🙂
How cute was BONDI, he was a cutie. Thank you much for the update on our picky furry eater, means alot xxx
Awww I just love Koala's. I have never seen one or held one as I am in the states But, I would love the opportunity. They are so adorable. am so glad they are being cared for the way that they are to save their species!
You should come for a holiday and see them
koalas do not like being touched, it is better to leave them in the wild, the koala spots that allow you to touch them (for money) are exploitation.
Do you think perhaps that koala that wasn't eating, was grieving at the lost of family members? Or suffering trauma from all that fire devastation? Humans can talk about trauma, animals can only act it out.
That's exactly what I thought! The sad koala must have been in shock & depressed from the lost family members & from going through all the horrific bushfires suffering catastrophe! 💔🐨😭🆘
Also, do they give them nutrition in the water they drink?
Kayenne54 truth
@@arielsea9087 Not sure. That's a question for a vet. Probably to begin with, I'd think. I've only had one encounter with a wild koala, and it just wanted water. (Literally knocked on our screen door). But these are brought in shocked and injured, so probably glucose or electrolytes are given to begin with.
Trauma could definitely be a factor imo
This is the most caring country for thier animals, God Bless them.
Great video , I’m sure if these Koloa’s could say thank you they would. In this video the vet mentioned how not eating and stress impacted the Koloa’s health. I wish many people will reflect on their own life acknowledge if stress is causing them to be unwell .
Financial stress for humans.
At least here in corporate u.s.
So glad you helped the koalas. :)
My heart breaks for theses animals so much and the people effected by the fires. Amazing all the volunteers and people coming together to help. Shows the best in humanity.
Look at all the cuties
You ladies and gentlemen are the real heroes in this world!!!!!!! God bless you all
DR. ALEX THANK YOUFOR HELPNING THE ANIMALS WHO ARE IN NEED OF HELP
Bloody fudging brilliant, my dears!
All love and best wishes, Claire and Sally, the older Goldie, Berlin ❤
I just cired my eyes out .... Thank you to all PPL who help koalas . Ur a True Heros !!!
Thank you for helping our Australian babies.
Give them lots of love and kind words along with the physical care you are giving them. They have suffered emotional trauma as well as physical and probably need lots of assurance. Thank you for helping them.
God Bless you for the care you are giving all the animals affected by this horrible fire.🙏
im not crying .. your crying. that was brilliant.. well done guys... doing a wonderful job and the editing of this video was outstanding
THANK YOU SO MUCH 😘😘😘THOSE ANGELS ARE SOOOOOO CUTE...😘😘😘IT MELTS HEART...
Keeping you guys in my prayers 🙏 every day God bless you all and the beautiful animals.
🇬🇧 Koalas have to be the cutest animals on the planet! And to be honest the volunteers who look after them here have to be the most beautiful people on the planet! I’m sure the Koalas know they’re in good hands! Keep up the good work! 🇬🇧
Beautiful work you all do. Im sorry about this. I’ve donated a few thousand euros at this point. Anything to help with fires and animals
Brilliant stuff. I've been searching for a video explaining the rescue and release process after the fires, and you've explained it beautifully, while helping out at the same time. Good on ya! Good luck to Bondi.
I want to thank everyone that's helping animals in general, but especially the animals from the Australian bushfires. It's heartbreaking that so many animals lost their lives. I'll be praying for everyone and the animals that were caught in destruction of the fires
Lovely little piggy grunts of the koalas. With all the hard work of the Australian people hopefully these rare beautiful animals of Australia will come back stronger.
Thank you being with Koalas. God bless you all...
Thank you for everything! God bless you all!
The Dr's (Vets) Vet Nurses , Parks & Wildlife Carers & the People , Young & Old that have all Volunteered . They are Angels that walk the Earth.
Thank you so much for all your efforts guys!
Live long and prosper and may you guys be always happy!
Thank you for your hard work. These animals are beautiful. It is heartbreaking what is happening to them.
To see these poor creatures in the fire, hot, seeking help and rescue breaks my fkng heart, when i saw that one in the fire singed and burnt i broke down, my heart hurt for all the creatures affected by the fire, i wish i had the power and ability to help every single one of them, my heart goes out the the rescuers and you fine people at the hospital for taking care of them and rehabilitating them, you are all heroes !
Thank all of you Vets & volunteers for all you're doing to help the Koalas! 😊❤
All of those beautiful koalas! It's good to see them and other animals harmed by the fires being helped.
There are so many good people in Australia. God bless them and God bless and protect Australia
Thank you so much, we are so concerned about the Australian animals. The poor little thinks are just so sweet.
25,000 koalas... It's unbelievable. 😢 I can't even imagine all the other animals are not considered cute enough to count...
I'm so happy that you guys and so many others have been helping all these animals. I really hope all the animals that lived can recover. ❤
What an amazing system. The colour coded bibs, the green box indications... it's really amazing how resourceful people are!
A gymnasium full of Kaolas. Perfect place for a workout.
Thanks for visiting us Alex!
My heart just breaks for these poor koalas. Just hope they’ll get put into a nice, clean area away from the wildfires that have went off down under
Thank you so much for trying so hard to save the animals suffering from the bush fires
Probably the most beautiful and loving animals on earth! ❤
The planet is a beautiful place because of people like you. God bless you all 😊
Beautiful to see those people helping and loving the babies ❤️❤️
