Australia has been witnessing one of the worst forest fires since September. While the fires are taking a toll on the environment, it has also been affecting the wildlife immensely.     

Among other wildlife in Australian forest fires, Koalas have been suffering horribly. So much that these animals are on a verge of extinction. 

Another video has gone viral of a Koala who approached a group of cyclists to drink from their water bottle due to the soaring temperature in the forests. The Koala was found in the middle of the road and the entire heartwarming ad heartbreaking interaction was caught on camera. 

One of the bikers mentioned

I stopped on my bike and he walked right up to me, quite quickly for a koala, and as I was giving him a drink from all our water bottles, he actually climbed up onto my bike. None of us have ever seen anything like it.

After seeing the video Twitter users too were heartbroken over the Koala’s condition.  

A lot of humans have been doing their bit to save these native Koala bears.
