i’m flipping channels and there’s some sort of ‘vet’ type show on. but what are the stories? no, not a cat that needs surgery or a cut paw. how northern american.
there’s the woman who rescues kanagroos. right now she has a joey (that’s a baby kanga) who was hit by a car and might be blind. so it’s trips to the doctor and specialists. even though the doctors think he’s blind and hence she’d have to ‘put him down’, she decides to keep him and see if his vision kicks in (apparently all joeys are blind when they’re born and dont get vision til they’re 6 wks old). of course the joey turns out to be fine.
and the other story was a guy in perth who rescues snakes in his spare time. out of people’s backyards and such. he’s calmly trying to bag a snake while telling the camera how poisonous the thing is and that if the snake gets loose, they shouldn’t move. pretend they are logs. oh and then he talked about what to do if he got bit (either bring the car to him or carry him to the car. elevate his arm if bit there. get him to the hospital asap).
now this is one of the fun bits of living here. getting this sort of tv.
