PEAK VIEW, AUSTRALIA - FEBRUARY 04: Animal rescuer Marcus Fillinger carries a bushfire burned kangaroo on February 4, 2020 in Peak View, Australia. The dart gun specialist had tranquilized the wounded animal near a fire-scorched Koala reserve for transport to a recovery center. Networks of wildlife rescuers and caregivers across Australia have responded to the country's historic bushfires, which have killed countless animals. In many affected areas, surviving wildlife are now suffering from near starvation, due to the widespread habitat destruction. Fillinger runs the AlphaDog Animal Army charity for rescuing both domestic animals and wildlife. (Photo by John Moore/Getty Images)
