Such a lovely, cuddly koala! We went to Cohunu Wildlife Park this morning. It was extremely hot! We saw all sorts of Australian wildlife - kangaroos, wallabies, emus, ostriches, cockatoos, black swans ans some ponies etc. Unfortunately the Joey wouldn't come out of it's mum's pouch but we could see it's legs sticking out.
