Jumping Joey begs for attention 

By Charlotte Regen 

A needy baby kangaroo was caught on camera frantically jumping in a bid to gain some human attention. 

Taken by Laurae Harvey, at the wild 2 free Kangaroo sanctuary, in Batemans Bay, New South Wales, on March 18, the adorable Joey, named Bugsy, leaps around her to gain her affection. 

Laurae said: “Bugsy is just 12 months old and was rescued by us at the sanctuary. 

“He is awkwardly learning to practice his new-found sparring skills at the moment but have never seen a joe so enthusiastic before.

“I was laughing like crazy. He was so awkward about it, but had so much determination.”
