Roo-cky start in Beaudesert

This little joey could be forgiven for being hopping mad.

His roo-cky start to life was saved after a Queensland Police Service officer found him on the side of the road on her way to work.

The joey was taken to Beaudesert station were officers jumped at the chance to take care of him before wildlife officers arrived from Kooralbyn.

What a tale!
