It was an act of cruelty that shocked people across the world - a helpless baby koala targeted with a shotgun found next to the body of her mother.
The tiny animal, nicknamed Frodo, received a fractured skull and gun pellets were found scattered throughout her body, damaging her intestines.
But despite her horrendous injuries and the loss of her mother in last month's attack on the Sunshine Coast, north of Brisbane, Australia, Frodo is bouncing back to health.
Staff at Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital found wounds consistent with a shotgun blast spread throughout the youngster's body and initially feared the worst.
A month later and Frodo has made an astonishing return to health.
