Little wombat is saved – level 3

LITTLE WOMBAT IS SAVED

Summari:

This is the moment a baby wombat was found alive in its dead mother's pouch.

Jodie Bradshaw, who runs FreeHearts Animal Sanctuary in Tasmania, noticed a dead wombat by the roadside. After approaching the carcass, she noticed the pouch wriggling. Initially she feared maggots, but then she saw a tiny paw poke out of the pouch. Bradshaw helps ease the now freezing infant out from its dead mother's body. Finally, after a combined effort, the baby wombat is taken out and wrapped in a towel to restore its body heat.

Norma, another wildlife carer at the sanctuary, is keeping the baby in her bra to maintain its body temperature and recreate the same environment of its mother's pouch.

"Good luck, little boy."

Opinion:

My opinion is that this story is very strong because if these animals are not taking care of someone who is already death because your own son that you be your belly die and do not enter is strong.
I thought well that a person has helped the animal.
