    Orphaned Koalas

    It is not common for a Koala to bear twins, and regrettable in this instance the Mum was struck and killed by a passing car. Fortunately, the driver stopped, and took the mother to the local vet, unbeknown she was dead, - where it was discovered she had these twins in her pouch.

    Oh my goodness, Wom! I agree with Karen, thank goodness they were rescued -- they are so adorable! Where will they live, will they go to a zoo?

    They'll probably go to a wildlife park. They'll get looked after there.
