Paul was rescued from a bushfire near Port Macquarie late last year, but succumbed to his devastating injuries last weekend. 'It is with a heavy heart that I let you know Paul passed away on Sunday 28th June,' Port Macquarie Koala Hospital said. Paul was the first koala rescued in the devastating bush fires in Port Macquarie in November last year. 'He was brought to the Koala Hospital as a badly burnt, traumatised little koala,' the hospital said. 'The Port Macquarie Koala Hospital volunteers and staff who cared for Paul for over eight months have been devastated by his loss,' they wrote.
