Orphaned Joey, found her in a bush after we moved her mother off the road, found a lovely vet who was locating a carer for her. So she's all snug and warm with a guts fulla warm milk now :)

But I do promise that if I rescue more I will crop them :)

I can understand that, they are the main focus lol, but I'm not sure how to do that on yours without removing mine. Sorry

What a lovely heartwarming story - thank you for sharing! We do request that photos are cropped so that the focus is on the organism, so I have moved the images of the joey forward. Please can you replace the remaining photos with ones that have been cropped to remove human faces. You can find more guidance here - http://www.projectnoah.org/faq Thank you, & welcome to the community!
