Fire fighters rescue baby kangaroo trapped in Gold Coast post box
Fire fighters have rushed to a post box on the northern Gold Coast, to rescue a baby kangaroo.
It’s understood someone had put the joey inside the box earlier this morning.
Queensland Fire and Emergency Services responded swiftly, along with Australia Post with the keys.
The joey was luckily rescued quickly, and is now safe and sound in the hands of wildlife carers.
It’s understood the baby kangaroo is on its way to Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary for a check up.
Fire fighters posted the following photo once the kangaroo was removed.
The RSPCA is investigating.
Our Pimpama FRS crew was called to a Gold Coast post box this morning after a baby roo was put inside.
A quick response from our crew, & Aus Post with the post box keys, meant the joey was out in no time. Pleased to report our furry friend is in the hands of wildlife carers ❤️ pic.twitter.com/oCZIcvCR1P
