You've heard of Crocodile Dundee? And about Kangaroo Dundee? Chris Barnes (Chris Barns) is the star of the films about Australia called Kangaroo Dundee, Kangaroo Dundee"). Also Chris is the real hero for dozens of small kangaroos, whose mothers died while they were still in their bags.

 



 

An animal lover Chris Barnes, also known nicknamed Brolga, which translated means "Australian crane". The nickname he got by chance, before Chris was engaged in the conservation of birds in Western Australia. Now he is busy to create a sanctuary for baby kangaroos whose mothers have been shot to death by a car while they were still in their bags.

If you think that such a little, it is not so. Actually kangaroos often die under the wheels of cars. If you think that protecting the front of the car accidentally called "kenguryatnik", then you, too, guessed wrong.

 



 

Usually Chris finds little of the kangaroo bags hit and killed a kangaroo by the roadside

 



 

"One day, while working as a tour guide, I saw a kangaroo lying on the road. I got off the bus to check on him."

 



 

"It was a female kangaroo. She had been dead for several days, but her bag was still a live baby".



 

"I took it home and called Palau. Then I nursed and cured him and a year later released back into the wild."



 

It was the first rescue experience Chris Barnes, after which he wanted to create a reserve. "So many people drive past the downed kangaroo, not knowing that perhaps in their bellies right now we are still living the little kangaroo".

 



 

Chris has created a rescue centre for young kangaroos, but soon found that there isn't enough space and needed to expand.

 

 



 

However, working two jobs, he couldn't afford it, but saved him the inheritance left by his uncle.



 

Today, Chris Barnes continues to increase the reserve and to take care of little kangaroos. His achievements were even noted by the BBC in a specially created for this program "Kangaroo Dundee".

 

 



 

To date, Chris has 90 acres on which the bushes 30 homes for kangaroos of all ages and other animals.

 

 



 

"Everyone can do this," says Chris.

 

 



 

He tries to keep shrubs and other vegetation intact to the little kangaroo was created a full sense of the wild.

 

 



 

Chris made bags for kangaroos of blankets and pillows, so they never froze, felt safe and was with him wherever he went.

 

 



 

As soon as kangaroos become adults and are ready to independent life, Chris releases them into the wild.

 

 



 

Since opening in 2005, the reserve helped to survive more than 200 kangaroos.

 



 

The kangaroo, like small children, need constant care.

 



 

The incredible efforts of Chris became possible thanks to the generous donations. The next goal is to build on the reserve of the first hospital for wild animals in Central Australia.



 

For his achievements and heavenly kindness to the animals in 2014, Chris was named "Australian of the year".
