SAVE A BABY KANGAROO
Summer vacation arrives, and this year you are visiting your cousins who live on a large sheep station in outback Australia, two hours from the nearest town. One afternoon while out horse riding you find a female kangaroo that has just been killed on the road by a passing truck. Her joey is still alive in her pouch. It is just twelve centimetres long and weighs sixty grams. Will you be able to save its life? This task asks you to make some important decisions about how to save this young animal. You will keep a journal to record what you do along the way, and finish by producing a poster that shows others exactly how they could go about saving the young animal if they were in a similar situation.
