The viral picture of a baby koala that hung on to its mom during life-saving surgery

Pictures of the heartwarming moment a baby koala cuddled up to his mum during life-saving surgery after she was hit by a car has gone viral. The baby and his mother were hit by a car in Brisbane's west in Queensland on Sunday. A spokesperson for the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital told BuzzFeed Lizzy is "recovering nicely".  More photos after the cut..

This is Phantom the koala cuddling his mum Lizzy during her recent treatment at the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. While Phantom sustained no injuries, Lizzy had to be treated for some facial trauma and a collapsed lung. Lizzy is now on antibiotics recovering well under the expert care of the vet team and is still getting some serious TLC from six-month-old Phantom, who is too young to leave her side.
