Joey from Waterfall Springs

This is Joey. He's just been put down as he was suffering from advanced arthritis and in a lot of pain. He was 27 years old and had a great life. He was very spoilt and lived in a great place as you can see. He lost an eye early on but that didn't slow him down very much. He will be dearly missed by a lot of people. RIP Joey

Lovely shot. What's the average life span for a kangaroo? 27 sounds like a good age.

@cottiac @adayinmallacoota @dawnee @lyndamcg @sweetsue53 @seattlite @annika82 @pyrrhula Thanks for your kind thoughts for Joey. @yorkshirekiwi I have no idea what their life span is, I'll ask my friend. Joey was very well cared for though, in a wildlife sanctuary and never had to forage for food. Loved his toast first thing in the morning.
