Prompt action by the Queen of the Jungle saved a young koala from death or injury on Magnetic Island .
She was driving from Picnic Bay ,where she had undergone some physio , to try and get her battered body into better shape , when she spotted the koala sitting in the middle of the road .
Fortunately, there was no traffic following, so she immediately stopped the car , got out and approached the koala , which seemed almost sleepy, like the one shown here photographed on the island .
After making a quick check to see if it was injured in any way ,the Queen then gently walked the animal to the side of the road, where it climbed into a tree, hopefully to later move further into the bush . Over the years, the Queen, a wildlife carer , has had many dealings with marsupials .
