http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35FT5DymIHU Koala's one of my favourite animals. I was lucky enough to carry a baby koala when I was in Australia back in late 1997. Ever since then, my affection for koala bears never leave me. I remembered after taking the precious photograph with dear koala, (i shall try to scan the picture) how it's paws / claws gripped me hard as I made a slight movement gently. I do pray that things will be better in Australia. The animals on the news all seemed really helpless. Sometimes I wished that animals can talk, scream, shout in the human way that we may be able to understand immediately and respond to them, and vice versa. Stay Strong! Till next time I visit Aussie! :) Love, Pampi
