In a zoo in Israel, a young kangaroo gave birth to a baby kangaroo, which was very tiny, less than three centimeters in length.
He, as befitted a kangaroo, climbed into his mother‘s purse, where it was warm and comfortable.
Most often, babies are to stay there till they are eight months old, however, this baby was unlucky, since his mother refused him and did not feed him, but simply drove him out of the bag.
If this had happened in the wild, the baby would not have survived, however, in the zoo he had a chance.
Valeria, an employee of the zoo, took custody of the rejected baby.
She has always loved animals and had experience caring for rare species.
She has recently raised a fawn to her feet, as well as monkeys, a bear cub and a giraffe.
In the case of the kangaroo, it was the hardest.
She lubricated it with oil, carried it in a special pocket and fed milk according to the schedule.
Even when the animal grew up, he did not want to leave Valeria and even fell asleep in an embrace with her.
