Wildlife Pictures from around the world

I've got an interesting assortment of animal pictures this week from friends and family.

Oregon Wildlife - Big Foot
Starting with my niece Katie posing with Big Foot at the 150th anniversary celebration of Oregon.











Their puppy Buster apparently thought big foot was a giant dog so really enjoyed meeting him too.







Kelso, WA Wildlife
My father-in-law took these amazing pictures of the Elk herds in his backyard in Kelso, Washington.













Australia Wildlife
A client in Australia sent me these pictures of a koala bear trying to escape the heat wave and the devastating bush fires currently going on in southern Australia. Koala's don't normally drink water so the fact it was hot enough to take a swim shows how stinking hot in Australia it's been. Here is video of another koala rescue that got a lot of publicity.

Hong Kong Wildlife
Last but not least, some of Hong Kong's wildlife, my newest foster kittens. These ones I picked up on Wednesday night. They were found in a garbage bag inside a garbage can!
Luckily someone walking by heard them meowing and saved them. Hong Kong Alley Cats needed a foster and I volunteered. They were filthy and after being dewormed, deflea'd and vaccinated, they all have cat flu so need meds.
