A lucky koala is being nursed back to health after she was saved from a brushfire in Australia.



The bear, who was nicknamed "Constable K-Bear" by her rescuers, was found lying unconscious on a road side. Emergency crews hand-fed her water and gum leaves until she felt better. They are continuing to care for her.
