Unfortunately when wildlife and domestic pets meet it is often a sad outcome for our precious wildlife.
This little female Red-Necked Pademelon joey was safely in her mothers pouch when mum was chased through the bush by a domestic dog. In mum's haste to get away her joey dropped from her pouch.
Fortunately the dogs owner was in hot pursuit and saw the joey drop, she picked it up and gently wrapped the joey in her jumper.
The little female joey was just 220 gram, her fur is just coming through and she is approximately 4 months old. She would have started to peak out of mums pouch, tasting the fresh grass when mum would lay down for a rest in the bush, even taste water from dew on the leaves.
When she was delivered to Wildlife Mountain she was in deep shock, she was treated for this condition and placed on heat. Once she was warm she was rehydrated and finally given special Macropod milk.
After a few days she was able to regulate her own body temperature as long as she was safely tucked in to her substitute pouch, and slowly she recovered from her ordeal. She will spend many months in care before she is old enough to be released with others of her own kind. Unfortunately we know more will arrive in to care before long.
Already we have other species such as Swamp wallabies in care and although Pademelon's and Swamp wallabies do well together in care, we know from experience more Pademelon's will come in over the next few months. These will be reared and released together when ready.
If you live in the bush please restrain domestic pets such as dogs, keep a fenced area for your pets if at all possible. We share our environment with other creatures, we do not have exclusive rights. 
UPDATE
February 2011
Our little joey seen here 4 months after arrival, now fully furred and out of her substitute pouch for good.
Other Pademelon's did come in to care soon after this little one, all are growing up together as a family group.
