They're so adorable. I'm so glad that they were rescued and are now doing well. Thanks for posting these cute pictures for us. I've always loved Koala bears.

Everything you read will tell you the Thylacine is extinct, however there has been some recent research and evidence that shows this species still exist.

Well, some say they do still exist. Tasmania still has a lot of very wild country, so who knows....right ????
A lot of people don't go into those areas because it is overgrown and very wet and cold, and there is Manfern there, which is quite dangerous.

How incredibly precious. Now that is the kind of baby I wouldn't mind raising.

Where did the photos come from? Do you work at a wildlife center? They are awfully cute. Just curious if this was a story from a paper or if you yourself took part in their care.

I raise marsupials for pets.

I had the pics sent to me from a mate in Queensland, so I don't know where this actually happened. It could have been anywhere really, we have lots of places around that do that. Where I live, we have a group called "WIRES", and if someone finds a hurt or sick wild animal, they phone them and they organise someone who knows about a particular animal to pick up the animal and care for it. As is usually the case, these animals sometimes just go to peoples homes, and are looked after there. It's sort of a network really.
