Ever been so hot during a heat wave that you've got all the windows open, the AC on, a fan blowing and nothing on but swimwear, and you're still way too hot? Spare a thought for our furry friends, who don't have the option of removing layers to cool themselves down. They really feel it.
It's a good job, then, that there are people around as friendly and generous as this gang of Australian cyclists, who stopped by the side of the road and were approached by a very thirsty koala bear. Recognizing that the men were drinking water, it approached them to beg for a drink, and was very grateful for what it got - look at the way it lifts its paws up to hold on to the bottle! Always keep an eye out for animals during very hot days, they'll be every bit as pleased for a drink of water as this little koala was.
