- Wildlife officials dropped food for animals in wildfire-ravaged forests in New South Wales, Australia to help them survive in burnt-out land.
In a mission dubbed Operation Rock Wallaby, national park staff used helicopters to air drop thousands of kilos of carrots and sweet potatoes to brush-tailed rock wallabies in remote areas of New South Wales state.

A big THANK YOU to everyone doing their part in saving Australia’s wildlife ❤️
Susan MinhTrang Nguyen do you live in Australia if so I’m praying for you as we speak even if not I’m here fam okay
You are chinese
Susan MinhTrang Nguyen Of course, whilst children starve in the third world this makes sense -Wow...ok.
Agape Instead of making such an ugly comment, you can do your part in making the world a better place.We all have a responsibility to the world. Take care.
Canadiense Guapo What an ignorant comment.
Please look after all these precious creatures
@asian dude So you can keep eating them
How many animals did they kill in the process. Dropped potatoes from thousands of feet in the air probably hit some in the head, common sense people damn
@Basil asians 😂
Keri ann Andrews Isn’t that what their doing??
@@sn6007 Nope, at least not me.
Cloudy with a chance of carrots.
God bless all of you who are helping all those animals!

Sandlapper class hahah🇬🇧
God bless you all people
Survived all those fires and desolation only to get knocked out by a carrot. Wow.
LOL weather forcast. This is so good. Cant watch burned koalas..
Imagine if we all were able to donate just one carrot,
There will be ray of happiness & hope in the Jungle.

I came across with this company who is giving free shaving kits to anyone who donates. Check this Charity Shave Co. Thought I'd share.
Common, the chance of vegetables hitting the animals are low. Atleast they are doing something. There are a lot to be done. They're doing the best they can. You got better idea?
Yes
What does Common have to do with this? Did he say something?
@john doe both lives are equally important to save
We do e they are doing something to help them,. May be they could drop the veggies in the ground level in the open bag Instead of dropping
@@roloug95 i think the user meant "C'mon"
Thank you so much for doing this, this whole situation is devastating to me and I’m hundreds of miles away. I can’t imagine what theses poor animals are going thru. Thank you for tending to these wonderful gifts in our lives
Koala to wallaby : i swear it was raining carrots
wallaby to Koala : well in my area it was raining sweet potatoes
Kangaroo: i am out of here. These 2 are nuts.
Koala to Wallaby and Kangaroo: you can have all of the carrots and potatoes, they forgot that I only eat gum tree leaves...
What a twist!
@@rohi881 all the eucalyptus trees burned due to fire and oils in the tree so alot of them burned
@@jessyncust76 that´s why I am in sorrow for the life of the Koalas. But I read further down in the comments later, that they eat also other things before they are going to die. I hope they survive...all these animals. And all the people who are helping they have my big respect!
Koala to Wallaby: isn't it strange that although we are different species we are speaking the same language. We are native Australians but we are speaking English. I feel ashamed, I think that we may be guilty of species appropriation.
Seeing this brings joy to my heart.
Ivan Sanchez How would you survive being hit in the head by a carrot or sweet potato ? And from that height it would shatter into a million pieces.. those animals at the end are eating ones that have been hand placed
@Uvuvwevwevwe Osas 5000 FERAL camels that were injuring wildlife and destroying food sources
@Uvuvwevwevwe Osas clearly you aren't Australian, if you were then maybe you'd have enough common sense to realise that a native species is league's more important than a ferral invasive species that risk the lives of native wildlife
@Uvuvwevwevwe Osas and guess what, they're not stopping at 5000, they're thinking 10,000 is a good stopping point, wanna know why? Because they destroy habitats, indirectly kill native animals, injure them when they go into a frenzy, and carry disease that our native species have no natural defenses against
Right.
It makes me happy and sad.
These fires are so F’d up and there’s been people caught starting them too.
Those turds need the electric chair.
Cheers for the workers helping the animals.
Some of you people's comments making jokes is pathetic.
Agree
Agreed. Pathetic, indeed.
It really is. They are people to.
I will pay double taxes if this is what’s it’s going toward.
That's right
Double taxes? In Australia though right? Not America
sedohema. Yes
No it will go towards healthcare for illegal immigrants lol
@@GY-hd4br I like immigrants
This initiative is wonderful!
Isn't it just! Finally someone with the brains to implement a real solid and down to earth plan! And wasn't all talk! Our very few animals left needed this and it couldn't have made me feel happier ... Literally cried every single day about all this and this has warmed my heart ♥️😇🙏
Shame that he didn't have the sense to spread the food over a wide area, dropping a carrot every 5 seconds say, instead dropping it all in single spots.
@Chris Kibodeaux ?
@Chris Kibodeaux Were you in that helicopter, mate? If the area was totally burnt out and destroyed, there would be NO living thing there. Ffs, wake up. These people know what they are doing. If they need help from the legion of the failed on social media, they'd ask for it.
Chris Dynamo obviously they had to plan it, which was to not do what you said in case the food drop on animal
A moment later: a number of animals died due to head injuries.
On a serious note, bless you people for doing such a heart-melting deed.
@Uvuvwevwevwe Osas 5000 FERAL camels that were injuring wildlife and destroying food sources
@Uvuvwevwevwe Osas they are an invasive species
@@thyspostma6655 all animals are Gods creatures lets see if ayone has the guts to tell him that his creation is invasive 😠. No animals should be killed unless its for food purposes unfortunatley.
Sandra R. Morales thats betting that he’ll say no in the first place.
Uvuvwevwevwe Osas the species is an invasive species, they killed 5000. Deal with it
At least those carrots will be easy for animals to find and they will last just over a month 🥕
I'm sure they be gone by then after Routh time they been thru
Carrots are a long lasting veg but it’s summer there and it’s like over 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Maybe last 4 days tops..
Sometimes I need reminded of the innate goodness of people. Hats off to you my Australian friends.
Imagine your home burns to the ground and then it starts raining carrots
How bout raining pizza😂
Sweet potato and carrot bombs adding to the peril.
Hopefully some food survived the drop and will be eaten.
Even if it didn’t survive the drop I still think the animals are desperate enough to eat it
What a surprise ain't it
Mana from the heavens
I don’t mind my taxes going to this good cause.
I don't mind
That is one of the reasons behind the scam from hell "Climate Change" . Money and enslaving people like they have never been enslaved before. People that have fallen for it have no idea the hell they will unleash on themselves and their children because of it. The gift from ALMIGHTY GOD of the resources of the earth will be taken from you and will just be for the so-called elite. Your food will be worms and each other. Don't believe me. Why do you now see the stars ( fallen stars) pushing for eating them . Expect to see that more and more of that. Also one of the Illuminati's scientists wants people to eat each other for the earth . GOOGLE it. If you can still go along with their plan knowing how evil they are makes you as evil as them.

THANK YOU TO ALL HELPING AUSTRALIA OUT IT MEANS THE WORLD TO ME SEEING PEOPLE WHO CAN DO SOMETHING DO SOMETHING I WISH I COULD DO STUFF TO HELP.
What about palastine
bushfires are natural to australia. The hole time half of the continent burns down and grows back from ashes. But news need a story right now, so give all of your money to help the poor baby coala.
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO TYPE IN CAPS
Colton F idk I just did plus it sends the message as me being legit serious
Amine Party GaminG idk about that
Something needs to be done but it is really a terrible event
edit: did not expect that much likes and did not expect those comments.....
@Gjhammer Gjhammer exactly, look into direct energy weapons - they're burning it down on purpose...
Yea - well said !
Gjhammer Gjhammer it’s true. The major fire last year in CA, the cause was two children.
@Bambi Palmer I don't believe for a minute that it was kids. This was a planned event by the powers to be just like Paradise Ca and others. It's about land grabs. Those fires near the coast is exactly where they want to put in the bullet train. These higher ups don't care about wildlife or human life. It's all about CONTROL, ITS TOO EASY TO SEE WHATS HAPPENING EVERYWHERE. I don't care who they've arrested, they'll find you or me or kids to take the fall. We live in a Very Wicked World!!!
@@MS-nz4fu So true, it's not the world either. It's wicked and greedy people and they will go to hell for this!
Poor animals... I'm so glad that some people even take care of kangaroos, koalas, and other animals because they are completely lost and they panic.
Yep can blame humans for that lighting the fires...
Humans caused it, so it's our duty to try and fix it. Poor poor babies burning and starving to death.
@@varowan1 & David Baker -- I beg your pardon? I'm sorry, I don't really know where you've got this information, but its fire season in Australia. Why? Because summer extends from December to February in Australia, with fire season typically peaking in late January or early February. This is absolutely not caused by humans, absolutely not. I can tell that you don't really know the seasons in Australia for sure -- Please, don't spread false information like that.
This is a great act of kindess, the Lord smiles upon this.
Yes. Lord farquad
but god couldve just put the fire out
Thank you to all of you for helping these darling sweet babies!💗
We treat animals like we treat humans.good job Australia.

@@abuadam6389 what? u dont like camels sausage?
But they’re not. What about those who lost their homes and lives?? Government controlled fires. To depopulate. And move them where they want them. In a city to control them.

Saved animals😥🤗
Terimah kasi 🙏
This just makes my heart break
You have no care for animals.
To all Aussies , “ you are a lovely nation of people “ the time and effort that has gone into saving and helping your wildlife is immense 👍🏻👍🏻 Your PM should be really proud of his citizens .
Thank you sir for helping those animals!🙏🙏Be safe!
And what about children starving in third world countries? Makes sense considering the world we live in when animals are more important...wow, ok.
It warms my heart to see the little guy eating!
Thank you Australia for not being anything like America
People who love animals are the best people.
Yup. And people who make a point of pointing it out are just virtue signalling
God bless our men and women who are waking up every day for Australia. And bless those who have helped in anyway that they can, near and far.
💪🙏
Like I’d be fine if ALL my tax money went into this
Sorry but it goes into bureaucrats' buttholea
Abram Gomez what does our tax money go towards?
Are you a vegan then?
Arif Mhmd wtf is that meant to mean
@@animallove4679 don't you understand? Its just a simple question "are you a vegan"? i.e "Do you people support killing of farm animals like chicken, goat, pigs, cows etc., in the name of tasty food, culture, convenience etc.,"?
Or
"You people only care about cute animals like dogs, cats, kangaroos, koala etc.,"?
The person who has disliked this video is not a good person..😢😢
Unfortunately, you just gave the trolls exactly what they wanted
Maybe he dislikes the sun newspaper
Everybody don't like rodents.
@@PhillyDjHook they aren't rodents
Yes
I think its amazing that they're doing this it just shows how much they care about their wildlife in Australia.
I almost can’t watch without shedding a tear
These poor animals. My heart is broken😭😭😭 their homes, families, and their lives been destroyed. Thank you for giving them food🙏🏼 I hope these animals can recover. Rest In Peace the ones who past and god bless the animals who are still alive.❤️❤️❤️
Love thank you so much love and kiss from france 💋❤🇨🇵
Hats off to you guys. Feeding the needy ones is truly human. I really appreciate your people.😊😊😊👍👍👍
Pity so little and so late, but a caring gesture to be commended.
Godfrey Berry I believe those seven dislikes could be the fact that, days, weeks and months to late. If that’s the case, I don’t blame them I quite agree and if this was all before the fire started and this is the drought and the vegetation of less and they were starving and dehydrated then, I will add my dislike to this.
@@wendym31463 I totally agree with you. Why this government/authorities took so long for this?
@Valerie O'Brien Wallowing in self-pity does not solve the issue. Humor and jokes are what give people hope and the drive to move forward, sorrow and political correctness does the opposite.
Right, so you appear to think that what you've been shown is all that has happened.
This is one instance, of one crew in one area! There has been massive efforts all over Australia by all levels to help the wildlife recover.
Also, try to remember some of these areas have only recently stopped being on fire.
Can those in the peanut galleries without the ability to comprehend the world around them just sit quietly while the competent get on with it.
@@flandrescarlet7227 you're absolutly right! 👍
Next day in the news:
Multiple animals killed from falling carrots
You're too funny!
🤣🤣🤣
God bless these worker when they the animals
Wish I would be the one dropping the carrots for those animals..❤️
Great idea feeding and watering stations!
ASt least they showed an animal eating some.
'They're'??
They are starving.
No 'atleast' about it.
Beautiful sight.
That shows their plan is working
The last shot is misleading. Those carrots weren't dropped from a helicopter, they were placed by hand. The carrots were bundled and not scattered as if thrown from a helicopter.
@@RG_77 That's what I was thinking..but perhaps that was in an area they could easily access and they set the camera up to see how many animals would show up. The air drop for harder to reach areas so any animals foraging would be able to find it. Just a thought.
Millions of children starving to death, but yeah lets give thousands of pounds of food to the animals. This is a public embarrassment.
I think this is a most valuable thing for this moment.they are doing best that they can do.I wish best of luck all the team who are trying to helping the poor animals to save their lives...God bless you
How could 1k not like this video???! Animals are living creatures with feelings just like people, and I think it was very sweet to drop food for them!!! I just hope no animals got knocked out from getting hit with carrots and potatoes!!!!
The last WALLABY @ 2:34 was like

When can we start buying trees to have planted?
Home Depot.
Kopliko Kot many problems, different people to figure out solutions
Don't need to plant trees. The Australian bush has adapted to bushfires over 1000s of years. You will hardly be able to tell that a fire has been through there in a few years because it recovers so fast. Some species actually need fire to germinate.
the snow gums require 20+ years to mature unfortunately there were fires in 2003, 17 years ago so there is a large possibility that large swaths of snow gum forest is now going to stay dead
In my country. Indonesia. We have a lot
Why would anyone hate this video.
I was thinking the same thing why are you hating this video
Probably some of the arsonists that set the fires.
Because they hurt animals by throwing vegetables from helicopter the animals may hurt from them
