Take a moment to consider the Australian state of Victoria. Over the last few weeks, the temperature was reported to be above 44 degrees with burning wind, out-of-control bushfires and catastrophic power outages. The toll in human life continues to rise, with record mortality rates amongst the elderly due to the heat and hundreds of lives lost in the firestorms. The hearts of many Australians are heavy as we come to terms with the scale of these losses.
We’re also reminded of the impact these events are having on domestic pets, livestock and the local wildlife population. Losses which cannot be calculated. But amongst all this, are stories of hope and inspiration – take this wild koala.
