It's So Hot In Australia ...

  

I got this in an e mail and it was just too cute not to share.

AT 120 DEGREES IN AUSTRALIA , IT WAS SO HOT FOR A WEEK THAT KOALAS WERE ASKING PEOPLE FOR WATER. IT'S NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE.

  
  
ONE WENT TO A HOUSE TO TRY TO HIDE FROM THE HEAT AND TO GET A BIT OF SHADE AND HERES WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THE OWNER GAVE HIM SOMETHING TO DRINK. IT'S REALLY CUTE.

I find the bottom 2 pics funny because it kinda looks fake, like the Caddy Shack Gopher
I don't know if its just me, but its looks like someone put a stuff animal in a bucket of water.

LMAO, thanks for sharing

Me too!
Poor thing! It made the TV news in Oz.
Debra H. Aug 16, 2009, 8:01am EDT
Tell us Magi are these gentle animals? Could they be domesticated and become pets?
They are known to scratch, bite and urinate on those handling them, Debra.

They only eat a special eucalyptus type of leaf - and nothing else. Thus they really aren't suitable as pets.
Debra H. Aug 17, 2009, 12:54am EDT
I had a marmaset that did that and other disgusting things (like flinging poo and vomit at people and a few other unmentionables), I gave it to someone I didn't like very well. heh heh
Then stay away from koala bears ... they also scratch and, I believe, bite.
Jennifer K. Aug 17, 2009, 10:43am EDT
Those are great. he is so cute. I thought Koalas were supposed to be mean animals.
Wilma M. Aug 19, 2009, 6:31pm EDT
