CLEAN: Koalas, kangaroos, snakes victims of Aussie floods

The transcript discusses the impact of floods on the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary and surrounding wildlife in Brisbane. Over 100 koalas were relocated to higher grounds, facing challenges due to cramped conditions. The sanctuary is working to restore habitats and address health issues, such as a kangaroo with a bad stomach due to spoiled milk. Native animals are struggling to find food and water, leading to increased interactions with urban areas. As floodwaters recede, residents are concerned about snakes entering homes.
