The festive season doesn’t hold off for sick animals. Noelle, the Joey kangaroo has been suffering with a severe chest infection. 24/7 around the clock triage, medication and lots of TLC have given her a fighting chance.

You can do it Noelle. We love you! 🤞🤞🤞🤞❤️❤️❤️❤️ #care #respect #love #lovewhereyoulive #

When you rummage around in the fridge for snacks—again... After birth, a kangaroo joey feeds and matures inside the pouch. But what happens when they’re too big to fit? Mother kangaroos can raise two joeys at a time, nine to 12 months apart, because they have four teats within the pouch. While the newborn, jellybean-sized joey is attached to one of the three smaller teats, the older sibling, who has stretched its teat as it grew, is able to continue nursing until it is around 18 months old. #Zoo

Warning: some viewers may find this report confronting. Wildlife rescue organisations in Perth’s southern suburbs are calling for help to track down a driver who they believe deliberately hit and killed a kangaroo & her joey. The attack has caused shock in the local community. | 10 News Perth
