Adorable Koala Gets CPR
One very lucky koala bear is alive today because of CPR.
Sean the Koala, named after one of the firefighters who rescued him, had apparently been hit by a car at some point within the preceding 24 hours and was having a hard time moving.
Sean the Koala had been put in a tree by a passerby, and climbed even higher when the firemen arrived. As they pulled him from the tree, his heart stopped.
An animal care provider immediately started CPR on the young koala, with the help of firefighter Sean, and Sean the Koala is doing well.
Be a hero. Learn CPR.
