Hundreds of Koalas dead in bushfire tragedy.

[Catherine]

Hundreds of Koalas are feared dead as lightening starts out of control bush fires. Until the area is searched we will not know how many are dead and how many are injured. Hopefully there will be survivors. This population is critical to the survival of the species.
It is a genetically diverse healthy breeding population. Any losses here put the survival of the whole species at risk.

  I don't know what to say. Sometimes a tragedy is just too much to take in. 

I am going to hope that there are some survivors. There won't be enough, but at least there could be some.
