Kangaroo saves master's life

by Sumana Saparamadu

This story is from Australia. Len Richards was a farmer in Victoria.

The morning after a stormy night he went to see what damage the storm had done to his farm. As usual one-eyed Lulu, his pet kangaroo, walked along with him.

As Len Richards was walking, a branch hit him on the head. He fell down unconscious.

Instantly, Lulu hopped to the farm house and went on tapping at the back door. Celesti, Richard's daughter said, "Lulu was making this noise like a dog barking. She was trying to get our attention. She never acts like this."

Celesti and her mother came out. Lulu started hopping back and they followed.

They found Richards lying flat on the ground. Immediately paramedics were called and they treated Richards. They said, "Mr. Richards could have died had he not been found in time."
