Caption
?Sue Swain gives a bush fire victim koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) named 'Sooty', a dietary supplement in her garage. '??Sooty' was very badly burnt during the Taree bushfires (NSW) in November 2019. His nose, hands, feet and chin were all affected - his hands were red and swollen with fluid - and his fur is all singed and charred. ??After three weeks his skin has started to heal very well, but he was having gut problems as a result of treatment with antibiotics for his burn wounds. He passed away a few hours after this photo was taken. Anna Bay, NSW, Australia. December, 2019. Editorial use only.
