According to official government research, there are more than twice as many kangaroos as people in Australia; therefore, it’s probably not very surprising that each year more than 7000 drivers are involved in, and claim for, collisions with theseanimals.

“She was just nine months old at the time and now she’s 18 months and growing strong,” the woman shared. “We named her Star after the road where we found her,” she added.
Despite all of the challenges, Tiffany’s little daughter Maggie wasn’t planning to give up on the little kangaroo and played a key role in the whole process.
“Maggie is very maternal and loves small animals, so she took Star under her wing, always wanting to feed her and look after her,” the woman explained.
Yet the mostspecial bondwas the one Star found with the family’s adorably sweet puppy, Hazel.
The two besties love to cuddle and sleep together
“They’ve grown up together, and their bond is lovely. I think this is literally thecutest thingI have ever seen in my life!” Tiffany shared. “Star doesn’t like being alone and will find someone in the house to be with. Either she is on Maggie’s bed or in the dog’s bed with Hazel. And if she is alone, she makes a sound to make sure we come find her.”
She shared several videos on her social media showing how Hazel gives Star gentle kisses, how theyenjoyeach other’s company hugging and how they love to take sweet naps together.
Kangala Rescue started to work after the bushfires around 4 years ago. They supply milk and other things to help out with animals who, once grown, eventually are released back to the wild.
The woman mentioned that they have 650 acres there on the property—two and 50 acres of natural scrub land and two freshwater lagoons—therefore, it’s abeautifulplace to grow up once the animals are released.
As Star also continues to grow, she is already starting to spend more time in the wild.
“She stays with us during the day, but at night, she goes off into the wild, and eventually, she’ll stop coming back,” Tiffany said.
Star and Hazel grew up together and their bond is truly special
