<div><p>When Terri the baby roo was rescued in the wild and brought to the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/thekangaroosanctuary/?fref=nf">The Kangaroo Sanctuary in Alice Springs</a>, keepers had to solve the problem of taking care of a joey that's used to snuggling in its mother's pouch. </p><p>In an adorable video, little Terry hops towards a keeper, begging for cuddles. As the baby kangaroo wraps its front paws around his leg, <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/fall-love-orphaned-baby-kangaroo-10267871">Chris Barns</a> holds something just out of reach. Terri jumps up excitedly on his hind legs in anticipation, waiting to be scooped up. </p><p>As Chris reaches down, we can see that he's carrying a special pouch that's meant to mimic a mother kangaroo's. Terri happily rolls himself forward into the bag head first, and Chris brings the baby in for a snuggle. </p><p>It's the sweetest thing you'll see all day!</p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/04/You-too-can-fall-in-love-with-the-baby-kangaroo-would-needs-some-snuggles.jpg" srcset="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/04/You-too-can-fall-in-love-with-the-baby-kangaroo-would-needs-some-snuggles_GH_content_550px.jpg 550w" sizes="89vw" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img><figcaption class="op-vertical-center"><cite>Mirror UK</cite></figcaption></figure></div><p>The pouches were custom-made by the sanctuary after workers realized they needed to mimic the natural environment and lifestyle of baby kangaroos. </p><p>"They hop into their mums pouches just like they hop into their pillowcase pouches we make them," a <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/fall-love-orphaned-baby-kangaroo-10267871">staff member at the sanctuary said</a>.
