In Brisbane, Australia, a mother and baby Koala in Brisbane was hit by a car. The infant was unhurt but the mother was in serious condition with a ruptured lung. They were transported to the Australia Zoo wildlife hospital for emergency surgery and the baby koala remained attached to its mother throughout this harrowing ordeal.

The mother koala miraculously survived this surgery and perhaps was influenced by the presence of the baby koala!

Now, the mother seems to be on the road to recovery.

Whether parent-child love was a factor in this story, it was featured in the local news in Australia!

This deep bond shown by the baby koala was really heartfelt and touching.
