Guess What – We Have A Baby Kangaroo!

It’s a girl and her name is Jojo, she has no mommy anymore, so we are happy to take the responsibility of raising her. She is about 7 months old and 30 cm tall. Did you know that they are only about 2 cm long and weigh less than a gram when they are born? It is unbelievable, right? Baby Kangaroos are called “Joey”.  She stays in a little pouch, which is a pillowcase we put in a bag and we keep hanging her next to the window.  Jojo has pretty dark blue eyes, little hands and long hind legs. When we got her she could barely stand and now she just started jumping the other day. We’re really proud of her! We have to clean her and feed her with milk every  couple of hours. When we feed her with the bottle, she grabs your finger while drinking. That is so cute and makes you feel like you have a real baby in your arms. You would get attached to her right away! Jojo gets curious more and more, so we let her out of her pouch to practice hopping on the grass. She is so fun to watch, you would love it!

Most Australians probably have never seen a baby kangaroo before and never touched one. So it is a real unique opportunity and experience for us to take care of her. So if you book a tour and come around here in about the next 6 months you will have the unique chance to feed Jojo and have unforgettable moments with a Joey! You should not miss out on that!

We will keep you updated, so follow Jojo!
