ORPHANED ALBINO JOEY

The keepers at Seaview Wildlife Encounter arrived at work on Saturday morning July 4th, 2009 to discover one of their older female wallabies had died overnight leaving behind a Joey aged approximately 6 months old. The youngster, who is a healthy, bouncing male, is responding extremely well to supplementary feeding by the keepers (he is already eating some solids) and loves grazing on grass when he’s outside!
