See below for 2019/2020 Update
This video was taken while I was volunteering at a conservation center in Victoria, Australia. These are the orphaned young koalas I took care of during my time there. We cared for these orphans until they were mature enough to be set free and live on their own. Henrietta (Henri), in particular, was very active that day!
It was very interesting as koalas spend most of their time in trees and rarely spend time on the ground, so seeing her bounding about in the grass was a funny experience. :)
