Antilopine wallaroo

This little joey is a baby antilopine wallaroo. Her mother was hit by a car and died. She was in her mothers pouch at the time. The driver didn't stop but fortunately some one else did. She would have been a hard breaking site her standing next to her dead mum in the sun. She was quite dehydrated when she came to us and had damage to her hock (ankle) which needed surgery to fix. She is doing well now but will be in care for many months to come before she is old enough to return to the wild.
