Heartbreaking Moment Mother Kangaroo Holds On To Her Joey For Last Time Before Dying
Heartbreaking Moment Mother Kangaroo Holds On To Her Joey For Last Time Before Dying
This
is the heartbreaking moment a dying kangaroo is held in her male
companions arms as she reaches out to hold her joey for the last time.
The
devastating moment was captured by photographer Evan Switzer, who
witnessed the scene as he took a walk in River Heads, Queensland.
Her
protective partner kept a close watch on her as they gave her comfort
while her joey held on to his mothers arms as she slipped away.
Describing
the touching moment, Mr Switzer told Daily Mail Australia: “I saw the
male pick up the
female, he looked like he was just trying to get her up
and see what was wrong with her.
“He would lift her up and she wouldn’t stand she’d just fall to the ground, he’d nudge her, stand besides her…
“It was a pretty special thing, he was just mourning the loss of his mate.”
He
added: “I’ve travelled around a bit and you see a lot of dead roos on
the side of the road – but I’ve never seen anything like that before.”
It’s not clear what had happened to the kangaroo and Mr Switzer said he saw no signs of any visible wounds.
