The three-year old male koala was struck by a car and carried for seven miles with his head and arm wedged through the vehicle's front grill,but was not badly hurt.
Staff members at the Australian Wildlife Hospital in Queensland state dubbed him,Ely "Lucky" Grills-the Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported on Tuesday.
"He was very flat and unresponsive for a couple of hours but (after) a bit of TLC and some food and fluids--and a bit of pain relief because obviously he would have a headache--he was up and eating and really doing well," hospital manager Gail Gipp told ABC.
