Sometimes, kindness really does come full circle.
A heartwarming story from Australia has gone viral after a man who once rescued a baby kangaroo in distress later found himself saved by that very same animal.
According to locals, the man spotted the joey abandoned near the side of the road months ago. Weak and scared, the tiny kangaroo wouldn’t have survived without help. He took it in, cared for it, and eventually released it back into the wild when it was strong enough.
Fast-forward to last week: while hiking, the man collapsed after a sudden medical emergency. As he lay struggling, the grown kangaroo stayed by his side — making loud calls and movements until nearby hikers noticed and rushed over. Rescuers say if it weren’t for the kangaroo’s actions, help may not have arrived in time.
Clips of the remarkable story are spreading worldwide, with people calling it proof that animals never forget kindness.
