Paul Ramos<\/strong>, a veterinarian who has been helping animals affected by Australia’s bushfires, took to Instagram earlier this month to share a touching video about an orphaned koala.<\/p>\n

The baby marsupial was rescued after losing her mother. Ramos’ footage showed the koala being held by a woman in a veterinary office and then receiving a stuffed animal. The koala immediately latched onto the toy in a truly tender moment.<\/p>\n

“This little girl unfortunately just lost her mother,” Ramos wrote via Instagram. “People and Nature: Truly we are all connected, and we can and must do better. [Love] to the #wildlifecarer \u2018s, local community and #wildlifevets who will step in to take care of her and hopefully, release her back to the wild.”<\/p>\n

In a separate video<\/a>, Ramos explained the roles teddy bears play in helping the koalas recover.<\/p>\n

“They need things like this,” Ramos, who was at the Mosswood Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation in Victoria, said. “Them being, like, arboreal or tree-dwelling creatures, they need to hold onto things. So when they’re transported or they come out of anesthetic, they need something to hold onto. So, literally, they’ll wake up with a teddy bear. So, we have these teddy bear drives.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

He then said it’s been “fantastic” to see how the community has supported Mosswood and expressed his gratitude.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“It’s amazing how communities come together when times call for it, how people just feel a need to do good things, because we are all connected,” he captioned the clip. “Love to those who step up in times of need.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
