Bear, a rescue dog diagnosed with OCD, was trained by the University of the Sunshine Coast's Detection Dogs for Conservation to find endangered animals by scent. With a dog's sense being 100,000 times stronger than a human's, Bear excels in finding koalas by scent from vast distances, making him a vital member of the team.

In the aftermath of the 2020 southern Queensland and beyond bushfires, a team led by Bear embarks on a mission to rescue and nurse back to health sick and injured koalas.
