A hunter has saved the lives of numerous koalas in the fire-ravaged forests on the outskirts of Mallacoota in East Gippsland, Australia, where bushfires have raged all week long. Twenty-two-year-old Patrick Boyle has rescued “eight or nine” so far, he says.
It started when Boyle ventured out into the fire-ravaged bush and found one koala and brought it to Mallacoota Wildlife Shelter.
“I was trying to think of what I could do and so I went out in the bush, because that’s where I like to be,” Boyle told Today.
