India

India was a 700g orphaned swamp wallaby. Everyone loved India, but as she grew bigger she became very agile and naughty. She would jump on benches to steal teabags, fruit, muesli, nuts, etc. She chewed telephone cables, television aerial wiring, and left poo where she shouldn’t. Rosemary wanted her to stay forever, but she needed to be free and was released into a beautiful bush area and has been seen often with her most recent joey.
