Orphaned

Ok..so I’m a softy at heart…. this little red kangaroo joey will now grow up with a big reputation..not only photographed by yours truly, but also held by the great cyclist, Lance Armstrong.

I’m sure all the other kangaroos in the paddock will be duly impressed.

And just because GG loves the animal shots… I have had to show you my caring side… and upload this one.

    That depends on the type of car as well, not just the colour. What was it? Mini Cooper, Barina or VW Beetle?
    Or did you just dream about it? You know… mid life crisis type of dreaming. Fancy dreaming about being a guy magnet Jim!!!! hee hee

    what did you do to soft introduce it back to the wild? I have one now I’ve saved from the roadside but apparently you need a license to look after

  • JimFilmer

    JimFilmer

    Yes you do need a licence for native animals…and the work to re-introduce…well I’m no expert on that, however I know some are successfuly reintroduced while others aren’t. I do not know the secret to how to be successful with this.
