The Drouin Girl Guides have been busy sewing pouches for animals in need.
Sandy from Buln Buln rescue shelter recently visited Drouin Girl Guides to explain how she cares for baby animals until their release back into the wild.
She brought along rescue packs for the girls to keep in cars for emergencies, and explained how to rescue a baby kangaroo from a pouch.

The Drouin Girl Guides have vowed to continue to support these great wildlife shelter causes in future.
