  • last year
Images posted on Facebook by the Queensland Police Service in Australia show a kangaroo joey being plucked out of floodwaters near the small community of Burketown in northeastern Australia as record-high floods hit the area. Murky water has inundated buildings in the town usually home to about 200 people. Police said the joey, dubbed "Lucky" by his rescuers, was found in water where crocodiles had also been spotted -- and have warned locals to remain clear of the flooding.
