Info from Licensor: "Walking along the Murray River on a hot 40 degree summer day, a little koala was sitting under a tree just above the water but he was that hot and bothered he wasn’t even attempting to climb down to get water. We didn’t have water on us so we walked home and drove back with water to find him still in the same place. I was scared to get to close at first as I wasn’t sure he would trust me, but as soon as he realized I was here to give him water he let me come right up to him and started drinking from my bottle as I poured it for him, we drove back later in the afternoon to see if he was still there, he has moved up the tree and looked so much more lively."
