Sunny the Koala
Sunny the Koala
Last week we had a special patient visit us again. Sunny is a beautiful male koala who unfortunately was hit by a car back in August 2004, but has returned back with injuries far worse.
On Sunny’s first trip to the hospital, he had head trauma and a few lacerations to his face. Sunny spent five months here at the Australian Wildlife Hospital before he was released at Birkdale, where he was from.
Unfortunately when he returned to us last month, we was in a bad way. Sunny was hit once again on the same road! But this time he had a badly fractured arm, facial injuries, abrasions on his hind legs and his teeth had punctured his top lip and nose.
Poor sunny had to have surgery on his arm, but he is recovering well. It’s so sad to see this beautiful boy come back to us for the second time in two years, let alone getting hit again on the same road! Sunny is such a sweet, quiet, placid boy and we all hope he recovers well enough to go back home soon.
