Koalas at Port Macquarie

We thought you might enjoy these videos!! They were actually taken weeks ago but I have only figured out how to download video recently... Boy I am becoming computer savvy... what next?

The first one is a Koala walking around. I found their walk so interesting. They did not look like a bear at all. Then one of the locals said well that is because they are not a bear? It was only nicknamed the Koala bear because they look cute and cuddly like Teddy bears. Well... we've learned something else.



The next one is a close up of a young Koala. We were able to pet her. They told us not to touch her near the face. Firstly, because this might scare or alarm her, but also because we could introduce an infection to her or to us from her.



Enjoy the videos. Coming soon our pictures of our trip to Shoelhaven.
