First off, I just want to say that this is the saddest picture I've had the chance to see in months. Not because of the trees remains lying on the ground, but because of the look on this koala's face.

The picture was recently taken in Vittoria State Forest, New South Wales. As Tree Hugger reports, the koala's sadness and confusion were caused by its coming to realize that its forest home had been wiped out.

According to the same source, the people who carried out these logging activities in said part of New South Wales made sure that the koalas living there were relocated before cutting the trees.

Still, it seems that this little fellow felt a tad home sick and decided to return.

The koala was caught by workers and taken to a vet before being once again relocated to another patch of forest.
