Crew rescues joey caught in a neighbour's fence

While hard at work, a couple of members of our trenching crew noticed a joey with its leg caught in a neighbouring fence. One of the crew gently helped to release the joey and, when it didn't hop away, quickly realised it may be injured or in shock and immediately contacted a local wildlife rescue group. Our crew member stayed with the joey until the rescue worker arrived.

The rescue worker sedated the injured joey so she could comfortably transport it back to her headquarters for injury management and treatment.
