In the Coromandel Valley of southern Australia, a family arrived home to find a koala bear cuddled up in their Christmas tree. Homeowner Amanda McCormick stated she was shocked to find the adorable animal perched in the artificial tree surrounded by dozens of decorations.
According to Global News, McCormick arrived home and spotted many of the decorations on the floor. She was shocked.
“I got home from work and the dog made a beeline for the Christmas tree and I noticed all the decorations on the floor,” McCormick told news media. “I could not believe it, I was in shock. It was right in my face. It was interested in something further up and I looked and straight in my face was this beautiful, little gorgeous koala bear…”
McCormick said the front door had been left open for the dog to go in and out and when she went out a few hours later to play with the dog, the koala must have entered her home. When she called the wildlife rescue to come and get the little guy, they initially thought they were being pranked.
When rescuers arrived, the koala really didn’t feel like leaving. She was ultimately relocated to a nearby tree where she rested for awhile and then left.
First we hear about a tiny owl found in a Christmas tree, and this time it’s a koala bear – oh what a joyous time for all; that is as long as they are safe and returned to their own habitats.
