wee wallaby woes

Wallabies are a common sight in Mission Beach, we love them dearly. Unfortunately every now and then these wee creatures and the necessary evil - the motor car - connect and the results are so so sad. The important thing to do is to check the pouch for a joey. Friends did the right thing last night and we have just passed the wee joey onto the local wildlife carers for them. Mission Beach Wildcare do their absolute best to feed and care for these wee joeys, eventually releasing them into the wild. It is probably a little known fact that the Mission Beach Information Station is a recognised 'drop off point' for such injured wildlife (as well as injured nightlifers looking for a cool place to get over their hangovers!!!)
