Our 5-month-old red kangaroo joey peeks out of its mother’s pouch. A joey is born after a 40 day gestation period, and they are roughly the size of a lima bean at birth. The joey will not come out of the pouch until it is roughly 4 months old. Native to Australia, red kangaroos are the largest marsupial. You can visit this new addition, along with its mom and dad, in the Children’s Zoo. Photos by Steve Jones.
