In Australia, the Koala survived after 16 kilometers next to the wheel of the SUV, clutching his suspension. The driver stopped when he heard a suspicious sound. It turned out that it’s the plaintive cries of the animal. The Koala climbed into the wheel arch when the car was on the hills on the outskirts of Adelaide – “life” with reference to Reuters.

“I felt the smell of her burned fur,” said the owner of the car Jane Brister.

Seeing the trapped animal, the driver called the fire brigade who removed the wheel to help free captive marsupials.
