Bowie, a Koala with two different eyes that was rescued by Steve Irwin's Zoo, is ready to be back in the wild after being rehabilitated for two months.

The Australian Zoo which rescued Bowie confirmed that she had been released into the wild earlier this week after recovering from her injuries, and a nasty case of chlamydia. Dr. Sharon Griffiths, Bowie's veterinarian, said that the Koala was lucky to avoid even more serious injuries.

Bowie was rescued by Steve Irwin's Zoo in July after she was hit by a car. The marsupial immediately gained worldwide attention because of her unique physical trait. Experts reported that she has a rare condition called heterochromia explaining why one color of her eye is brown, while the other is vivid electric blue.

The Koala was named Bowie, following the late music icon David Bowie who also had two different colored eyes due to a condition called "anisocoria."

Griffiths told Huffington Post that Bowie's condition was very uncommon for Koala's since it is usually found in domestic mammal species such as cats and dogs. She added that her condition does not affect her eyesight at all.

Meanwhile, Richard Jackson from the Australia Zoo's rescue unit said that Bowie was a special kind of Koala, and not just because of her rare condition. "What's even more special though is the fact that she gets to go back out into the wild a healthy koala who can contribute to the declining south east Queensland koala population," he said.

The Australian zoo reported that it could cost about $5000 to treat a Koala because they are complex creatures.

The Australian Zoo encourages people to help animals like Bowie so they can return to their homes in the wild. More information on the advocacy can be found on www.wildlifewarriors.org.au.
