While the tree-hugging koalas are generally cute, nothing spells adorable than seeing them getting plenty of rubs and tickles.
Meet Harry, the baby koala that is currently the media darling of Symbio Wildlife Park in New South Wales after its video with zookeeper Tami Wilson went viral.
The 55-second video clip, uploaded on April 9 and which has now received 12,000 likes and 6,901 shares on Facebook, shows little Harry climbing down the tree after seeing Wilson.
After kissing the zookeeper and being sat on Wilson's lap, the koala receives what could be the best treat for the day: lots of belly rubs, soft kisses, and even a few seconds of lying down, enjoying the fine Australian sun, while getting more belly rubs and tickles.
The video doesn't show what happened to the koala joey after, but we can only guess he will be asking for more of it in the future.
Aside from Harry, other stars in the park include Imogen, a well-loved koala that, interestingly, has a special bond with Harry, too.
When Harry was only a few weeks old, his mother died of leukemia. Unfortunately, this means that not only did he lose a mom, but he might also not be able to eat eucalyptus trees unless he gets the necessary pap secretions.
Resolving this required a very unique setup. Imogen's mother would act as Harry's surrogate parent until he gets the pap secretions while Imogen would be hand-reared by humans namely the park's general manager Matt Radnidge and curator Kylie Elliot, who took turns wearing a fake pouch to keep Imogen safe and healthy.
The koalas now live in the new breeding sanctuary of the wildlife park, which started in 2014. "The way we've designed the sanctuary is we have two large exhibits, and there's a lot of space so we can house a lot of koalas together. It gives them a natural environment, almost like being in the wild, so there are lots of areas for them to go to," said Wilson.
