Wallaby Joeys at the Kangaroo Conservation Center
February 11, 2009
Meet the Kangaroo Conservation Center's most recent arrivals: Soleil, Oliver and an as of yet to be named little joey born to mama Bindi. These are Agile Wallabies, Northern Australian and Indonesian marsupials related to their better known cousins, red and grey kangaroos. All three of these babies were born in the summer of 2008, but have been hidden in pouches for most of that time. For the incubator babies, a cloth pouch was provided.
Soleil and Oliver have a close bond
A warm home
What do you think this baby Joey's name should be?
Agile Wallabies are rarely exhibited in the States and the Kangaroo Conservation Center has the largest collection.
