:23:03
Looks like an interesting place.
:23:05
We always say
we've got something here for everyone.
:23:08
Any immediate requests?
:23:09
No, thanks. We're anxious to get on the road.
:23:13
Vehicle looks good. What's the story with this?
:23:17
Kangaroos.
:23:19
Roo bars or bull bars...
:23:21
...are often the cause of sudden death
for wildlife here in the outback.
:23:25
Millions of animals die every year
from collisions with vehicles.
:23:29
Kangaroos, in particular,
are getting clobbered all over the bush.
:23:35
What a shame!
:23:37
And this is a tragedy that we see all too often...
:23:40
...out here on the outback roads in Australia.
:23:43
Part of our job is to pull the carcass
back off the road...
:23:46
...so that any wildlife that comes to feed on it...
:23:49
...doesn't get clobbered by another vehicle.
:23:52
Steve, she's got a joey.
:23:54
Come here.
:23:55
We might have a chance to save her baby.
:23:58
There's a girl.
:24:00
She feels cold.
:24:02
Does she? I'll nurse her.
:24:04
Whip your shirt off,
we'll give her something warm to cuddle up in.
:24:09
A joey this size would never fend for herself.
:24:11
She'll need us to help her survive.
:24:14
We've been adoptive parents for joey
kangaroos for many, many years.
:24:18
We successfully raised them...
:24:20
...and got them back out
into the wilds where they belong.
:24:23
But they take a heck of a lot of
nurturing and caring.
:24:27
You all right?
:24:28
Let's go, girls.
:24:30
You're kicking!
:24:32
We're prepared for any wildlife emergency.
:24:35
We have to feed her just like a baby
every couple of hours around the clock.
:24:40
-Here we go, sweetheart.
-You ready?
:24:43
Okay, just like in mama's pouch. Upside-down.
