Hundreds of native animals and pets, injured by a deadly bushfire in Western Australia's South West region, have been treated at the Waroona Veterinary Clinic in recent weeks.
Posts to the clinic's Facebook page show the diversity of animals treated since the bushfire tore through the region, killing two men and destroying 69,000 hectares.
Kangaroos, cats, possums and alpacas are among the menagerie being treated at the town's veterinary clinic, with many suffering severe burns to their paws as well as smoke inhalation.
