Diaper wearing baby kangaroo captured by authorities in Florida

Deputies with the Hernando County Sheriff's Office (HCSO) used social media on Wednesday November 13 that a baby kangaroo or a joey as they are called that was wearing a diaper and a blue harness that was located near J D Floyd Elementary School in Spring Hill Florida.
The deputies of the HCSO did report the good news that the joey who is four months of age was captured by the deputies 10 minutes later at the Plantation Estates.
I am sure that the HCSO deputies will use social media to find the owner of the joey and reunite the joey to his owner.

This baby kangaroo should be with other kangaroos and not wearing things a human baby wears, No wonder he ran away,

I wholly agree with you. That joey should be in Australia, in the wild.

I agree with you that the owner of the kangaroo is heartless having the joey wear a diaper in public.

There are a few kangaroos in the U S.

I do wish the baby kangaroo would go back to where it belonged. And that is not the person who makes it wear a diaper and puts a harness to it.
Joeys should be in Australia, as far as I know.

I agree with you that joeys belong in their homeland.

@Deepizzaguy It is a shame to have a joey with diapers.

Thats sad to know it got lost, I bet the kangaroo is a bit scared, i hope hey find its owner soon. I think the owner is also having a hard time searching for his/her kangaroo.

I hope the people are allowed to keep this roo. He may have been illegally purchased, which would mean surrender, and perhaps prosecution.

Most likely what happened to the kangaroo's owners.

The joey must have messed up in the owner's house, for them to go to that extreme, and put diapers on a kangaroo.
