Cute, yes; helpful, no.
Koala mittens needed to help bushfire victims with burnt paws http://t.co/MpUoPkHPmO pic.twitter.com/JPj0EBRrka — The Guardian (@guardian) January 9, 2015
A call went out recently asking for mittens for koalas whose paws were burned in brush fires. Because that’s so freaking adorable and tragic the Internet reacted rather effusively. Now the Australian Marine Wildlife Research & Rescue Organization would like people to please stop sending them mittens and send them money instead. (via Buzzfeed)
NO MITTENS…. Unfortunately mittens will not be used on bushfire cases, these impede their ability to hold onto leaf and branches. Thank u. — AMWRRO (@AMWRRO) January 9, 2015
