The Wonders Of Australia
Our story starts when two teenagers named Jack Donnelly and Nick Heath got on their dirt bikes and went for a ride.
What was supposed to be a relaxing day turned into an adventure...
Muddy Roads Are Filled With Wonders
The two boys are expert dirt bikers and they wanted a challenge, so they went to a place that's filled with mud.
Little did they know that something will catch their attention on one of those fields and it will change their lives forever!
Mud Sliding
One of the most difficult things that bikers could do is to get on slippery surfaces like mud and slide around. Riding on such roads it's pretty dangerous and you have to be careful at all times.
Everything could change in the blink of an eye. However, the two boys had no idea what they were getting themselves into...
The Boys Spot Something Strange
As the two boys were riding around on their bikes, they spotted something weird moving in the mud.
They both knew the dangers of getting closer to that area but curiosity got the best of them and they had the craziest idea...
Taking A Look
With adrenaline rushing through their veins, one of the boys decided to take a closer look. What could that be?
Was it a snake or a crocodile? He took a few steps and gasped...
Baby Kangaroo
Curiosity got the best of the teenagers and one of them got closer to the animal to see what it is. That's when he saw that it was a baby kangaroo who was left behind by his family.
However, the boys didn't risk their lives without taking some precautions first. Here's what they did...
Taking A Risk
Getting on the slippery mud was a risky thing and the boy who decided to head over to the kangaroo made sure to tie himself with a rope first.
This shows us that the boys are pretty clever, but let's see what they did next.
Getting Closer
One of the boys was holding the rope while the other one was getting close to the baby kangaroo.
This is when things started getting scary because the kangaroo was making weird noises. He didn't know what the boys wanted to do to him and he was scared...
Grabbing The Kangaroo
The boy didn't even think that the kangaroo might hurt him and he got closer to it. Here comes the difficult part because the boy needed to figure out a way to get the kangaroo into his arms.
Unfortunately, that didn't go too well. At least not at first...
Weird Noises
The baby kangaroo was obviously scared because he didn't know that the boy was there to help him and he started making weird noises in hopes of scaring the boy away.
To the kangaroo's luck, the guy didn't give up and he grabbed the animal in his arms. What happened next is amazing!
Pulling The Rope
The teenager grabbed the baby kangaroo in his arms and told the other boy to start pulling on the rope.
Doing this was quite tricky because pulling too hard could break the rope. You will be amazed by what happened next!
Getting Up
The boy and the kangaroo were finally out of the slippery mud, but getting up was not that easy.
The two were covered in mud from head to toe and they risked falling down if they got up. But still, they struggled and...
The Boy Is Struggling
You can clearly see on the boy's face that he is struggling to pick up the baby kangaroo, but he isn't giving up!
Not after how much effort he put into saving the wild animal until now. After a couple of minutes...
Smiling
Even though his mission to save the baby kangaroo was still far from over, the boy had a bright smile on his face. He knew that he saved the animal's life!
The tiny kangaroo was tired after hours of struggling and he did the most amazing thing once he got out of the dirt...
Big Hug
The boy grabbed the kangaroo in his arms and this calmed the wild animal.
The kangaroo wasn't making aggressive sounds anymore and he was waiting to be taken to safety.
Back To Safety
The kangaroo was brought to safety and the poor animal kept trying to hop away, but he was covered in so much mud that he couldn't move its tiny legs.
This was heartbreaking to see, but the teenager knew exactly what to do next.
Getting The Mud Off
Now that they both were in a safe place, the teenager started cleaning the baby kangaroo.
As the boy was carefully taking off the mud, the most amazing thing happened!
Calming Down
The kangaroo realized that the teenager saved his life and started slowly wagging his tail.
The boy was nearly moved to tears by this. The next picture is going to bring a smile to your face!
Picture Time!
As you can clearly see, the boy managed to pick up the little kangaroo and take him out of the mud.
The two teenagers knew that they couldn't simply leave the poor animal there because his family abandoned him and they called for special help instead.
Special Help
The teenagers called Wires Australian Wildlife Rescue for help. The rescuers came where the boys were playing around with their bikes really quickly and took the baby kangaroo into their care.
Safe Shelter
The baby kangaroo was quickly housed in a special wildlife shelter where he could live his life without having to worry about getting stuck in mud ever again.
All that's left now is for the baby kangaroo to grow up and be released out in the wild. Nonetheless, the Australian boys showed that they are brave and they put it all on the line to save a life!
