Sad day

Just last week, a baby colugos was found in macritchie with her badly injured mother, apparently, someone spotted 3 men carrying plastic bag and what looks like a slingshot. NPS photographer Aaron was at the site when it happened. The mother was so badly injured, she had to be put to sleep. National Park then took the baby into their care, surrogate mother, Janet tend to the baby's need for the past few days at the Ranger station in Macritchie. But last night, the baby simply lost her will to live and had to be put to sleep this morning.

haizzz, darn sad news.. especially when you know how cruel humans actually are, so if anyone is actually reading my blog and frequent our nature reserves, please keep a lookout for anything suspicious and contact the ranger station for assistance. These 'animals' are probably armed with a slingshot or maybe a knife of some sort, so be wary if you approach them.
