Tiny orphaned animal found - Catherine - 02-20-2026
Campers in Australia found an orphaned animal the size of your fingernail.
They called Wildlife Victoria to help the little one. It turned out to be a Feathertail Glider.
With a little care, the baby was already looking better. It will be cared for until it can be released.

I am amazed they even saw a baby that small. As an adult they are only a few inches long.
They were just in time. That baby wouldn't have survived much longer without help.
Well done campers, well done.
