Koala Superman to the rescue.
Local resident David Kloske is now being called the Koala Superman by family and friends after his dramatic rescue of a young Koala trying to cross busy Klumpp Road on last night.
“Poor little guy was wandering across the road and seemed very lost and confused and kept stopping and turning back etc. So I blocked the traffic for a bit with hazard while I scared it off the road onto the pool side [footpath]. Then I parked my car and ushered the little fellow down the bike path and back into the trees.” David Kloske
Koala breeding season runs from spring to mid-summer. So please be careful on our local roads at night.

Koala Superman to the rescue! Wonderful to read such stories, It serves as a bit of a reminder that though we don’t live in the country, we still very much share our area with wildlife which must risk the perils of our busy roads.

Fantastic to read someone is so committed.
Sad to read about the koala, it will only be a matter of time.
It is nice to have wildlife in suburbia but unfortunately wildlife, humans, domestic animals and vehicles don’t mix well.
The poor wildlife always come off as the loser.
