You said on the page
that the koalas where searching for water as a result of a heat wave. This
isn't true, these koalas where dying of thirst and desperately seeking
sources of water, as a result of the recent bushfires across the state of
Victoria, as I'm sure you must have heard of. Koalas usually get their
water exclusively from the leaves of eucalyptus trees, and do not directly
drink water, so this is an extremely rare sight. The Victorian bushfires
caused very dark times for Australia, as did thousands of people across the state
lost their homes and even lives, as well as did thousands upon thousands of
animals. The animals that survived were left to live off very little, as most
of the fauna was burnt to the ground, and will take years to recover. These
pictures represent the desperate measures these poor lost creatures will go
to for the chance to survive. They may seem cute, but we Australians do not
see them as funny, not one bit. So it annoys me to see you pass off a simple
heat wave as an explanation for these pictures. Would you please change it?
