She was brought to the Taronga Zoo in Sydney, where the officials nursed her back to health. To keep her company they gave her a stuffed toy kangaroo, though they did not expect Bettina to embrace the toy so wholeheartedly.

Probably missing her mother,  Bettina started clinging tightly to the toy kangaroo while feeding and sleeping. She clings to it using her claws and teeth as she would do with mum in the wild.

The zoo officials are happy to note that Bettina is making a full recovery thanks to the stuff kangaroo.
