Kangaroo, boobook

A fully grown male eastern grey kangaroo is 2 metres tall and can weigh up to 100kg. The one I picked up this afternoon weighed 1kg and is covered by a very thin layer of down. The lady had hit his mum and kille her, so she checked in the pouch and found the little pink thing.

By the time I got to her house her 3y.o. son had claimed the joey. He was hugging the little animal and playing with it. I took it away and he cried.

MWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA! Rescue an animal and scar a kid in one move, and I didn't need a yish.

In other news, the boobook owl looks a lot better tonight. He's standing up and his wings are mostly folded in. I'll still take him to the zoovets tomorrow. Something was wrong with him.

Ooooh you have moved beyond needing the yish! You are truly truly evilmean to children now. I envy that!
