Everyone is trying to count these little kangaroos as fast as they can! @James says, "9 Babies!" @Lapepa adds, "I opened my door and called out “come on” but no baby roos hopped in. I would like a refund please." LOL! If only it were that easy! @Emily responds, "I think I just had a serotonin overdose." @Jay adds, "This is my dream! To have them in my life! You are so lucky."
Some of the reasons that joeys get orphaned in Australia include their mamas being killed in road accidents, hunting, disease, and environmental factors like drought or bushfires.Orphaned kangaroos face significant hardships in the wild, as they depend on their mothers for nourishment, protection, and guidance. Without help from rescue organizations, their chances of survival decrease significantly.
