Tragic situation down under for sure. Just terrible. Did anyone see the picture or the video of the fireman coming across a Koala Bear that was bewildered and a little burned and he befriended it and was giving it water from a bottle? Very cool thing. Amid all the tragedy something like that happens. I guess over 200 people have lost their lives......very sad indeed.
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

They are talking about chrging the people who started it with murder......looks to be arson that started the whole thing.

The Koala bear was very cool....I guess they found another one so the 1st one now has a friend

Some were arson, some were natural.

TMZ tried to make fun of the koala and was summarily brutalized in comments about their tasteless posting. Not sure if they took it down or not.
