is a survivor when she was hit by a car many of her bones were broken during. the local vet wanted to put her down but donna stepan doesn't give up on a woman. she's building a sanctuary dedicated to saving mumba. its own sleepy bar and the life here. but sleeping in one would but would you describe your daily schedule of . insight because that's what everybody tells me i am.

every year more than 301 back to me to help brought here to her property sound while. most of the one bets are off and after they bother with people i call. to daughter and her husband to build their own individual net bag that is most generally gets cut off this is casual. and this is eminem's to set your friends if you were more than a. go. it's quiet. now they are. the youngest womad living 3 rooms in the house and so to make themselves at home or someone's just caution to

. octagon lot which won. too many cheering. in the 9 and on and on and on and. on get into trouble. boy she is not that. it might not seem like it here but wombats. solitary territorial animals donna's job is to prepare the food it's easier for eventual late into the. search for the 1st one but it's better to around 6 am. come back to clocks one around 11 pm so since all of this is . an old guy job and frankly i don't think i'm cut out for a quote whoa whoa cool guy but.

when they're not close ignite him the young woman sleep in boxes and bags set up to replicate a borrowed or a mother's pouch this used to pay a living room and as you can see now. it has. completely the idea was never to have them in the house it was to keep it secret but the centuries just point now that it's not possible. we were at 200 percent capacity. so if this is. the youngest. who survived after a car killed her mother if she was killed just 50 grams when she emerged from the pound and was quite literally a handful of. what i do is i tend to be for me. so that

when i feed her she's come to thank. you she's already going to the right there. and this is her 4th week so she's. always nestled under donor shows abba requires feeding every 2 hours. she's making good progress. 65 grams. of fiber and. i am happy. every trios is with. another one and he is right at home playing with the family dog.

but domestication is he's probably. raised as a patient in the city and he was fed dog food and only type out saw it on car trips . one but it's normally about. before they're ready for release into the wild but former pits like eddie. we hear of people who have the mill eagerly all the time you go to remember some of these moments of never being outside. he didn't know what day it is this is beautiful and that i can interact with him i can be with him but at the same time it makes me angry because it's not how he should be. but we'll fix. it was a callous. one way to use a guard that sit on the path to say. she saw a car of you run over warm about rising by the road saw them drive away.

they probably didn't even know about them but it was probably just a night of fun. there was no thought to what would happen afterwards to the animal how long it would take to die the fact that they drove off laughing. i promised it to that animal that i would make a difference. i knew i could create something good with it so. sorry. what has come out of that as horrible as it was is something i hope is more powerful in the long run for one bets. since then donna has built sleepy barros each with school it's the pens around the sanctuary prepare them for last doc in the wad this is one but primary school in each of these compartments there is a bar which the young juveniles will go into i will bring them in and then only for

short periods of time but that's to replicate what would be happening with their mothers and through that they will gain just that slight bit of confidence being on their own and they move it got back into the studio. by the time this would get longer and longer and longer when they get to a point where they actually don't want to come inside with me that's when we actually move them up into one that high school it's a long drawn out prices like rising a toddler multiple toddlers sitting. on the outer edges of the century place he's caught by working with the lodger wombats as they become ready for a relationship we go to so good why pretty quick. you'll start running. with money which the. big bads was just a bag with me. now this briggs keeps feel on his toys how do you determine

when it's time to release. a big one like how do you know it's time for the sanctuary. for us to go hand in any type of office a little. you know if i can dig your big receive. and you know it was make up on the boat in the bar they're all pretty good songs that the older one is. one of the 1st one bats released into the wild has come back to be that sleepy barros. daughter calls big vege their teacher she. it's significant in that because of the bond that i have with or the trust that i have with. i was able to get close to the bush. so i could watch monitor and then bring that information back and we based our we built their environment it around what feds

told us. brits in ours don't know discovers a shocking development she has it start in the frontier all over here just 10 last . big this house coptic manage and she said she got it quite severely on her belly . so clearly it's at the sanctuary. not happy to see her after a few months of. suck up to is a vice who can tie just disease when left on trees and the results are reduced to suck up to mange is a parasite in the last decade it has escalated to every single year the amount of areas with mange one that's just continuing creases 10 years ago i could have given you mange 3 areas that we look to release in i could not do that now from you going by our daily would we believe around 70 percent of the wall population in new

south wales is directly affected by mange. but the worst recorded outbreaks that i can be found on the southern island of tasmania and around to prove national park is ground 0 for the disease. the woman population in this national park declined by non to 4 percent in just 6 years because of mine which. now locals few to venture. other wombat populations who go the same wire we've seen them disappear in the hundreds just in this area admittedly this is the worst area probably but it's not oscillated into this area see who's making things at a caravan park mia by the main me of graphic example of the problem.

to wombats with badly advanced marriage looking for books and grosse that's one that we've been training now on and off for a year because we can't find his bar he doesn't seem to be responding to treatment really well. to try and save the local wombat population the works with a community action group. in a la stitch efforts by swat one of the one bats backs with side deck to a chemical used to treat sheep last. how do you feel when you see one but it's like that to me it's quite confronting to say it is and if we see one that died and we often do that it's just heartbreaking. which caused by age can thrive for up to 3 weeks. leading up to another volunteer. is helping bates of the wombats forest yes or more

between port flaps at the barracks entrance and put side decked in to treat the buckets but we feel they stopped once awake with subject in which we've got a nice sore spot it's a chemical that treats the mind the tips up the flap which dispenses the chemical exactly where we want it on the back usually that's the healthy is healthy as part of. this method is very simple one can be done by almost anyone the beauty of it is we're not having to disrupt the frame that i can continue about their normal daily life but they getting treated. cameras monitor their behavior but the volunteers admits the success of the treatment comes down to luck and best is a bandaid solution because one bats use multiple borrowers and often mice with

infected animals of say no they are healthy when going in the same bar was a mind one he would go out in. that sort of thing just bring infecting it. quite despondent we go up and down i feel some days when making a difference and then on the days when nurse. undeterred big keeps making more borrowed flops in her garage using ice cream container lives she says demand for her kids is higher than ever across tasmania's. the volunteers believe the government should be doing more so far all the government's really done is just monitoring why aren't they treating the animals seriously you if you would be prosecuted if your dog was walking around with mange and you just looked at it and monitored it so we're saying it's a conservation issue and that we are seeing the decline of one bats one bats at a statewide level are not decreasing in tasmania the numbers are increasing or at

very least stable dr rosemary giles' is a biodiversity expert who works with the tasmanian government department responsible for mind control she says while the parasite is bad in one bats across the island there is no reason for a long we're confident that several populations are increasing. we have evidence and we're happy to rely on that it's robust we do know there's been a regional and a very localised decline there's no denying that's true but our one bats endangered absolutely not for anyone but affected by mentis national welfare issues it's a terrible thing to see an animal so severely afflicted by mange and so that's a real priority to try and find an effective treatment we need a drive that doesn't have to be applied as often for as long. dr scott carlow from the university of tasmania hopes he might have the answer.

tasmanian government funding he's trialing a new topical treatment for you. at the moment if we want to treat along that from the ranger was on that we have to use treatments from have to deliver every week and it's really challenging to do that consistently toll on that so what we're trying to look at as a longer lasting single treatment that can protect individuals for up to peps 3 months. psychotic mange causes perhaps the most animal suffering of any disease i've ever worked on. and one by the same particularly susceptible one of the reasons is that they live in a bar and in the bar the mines are able to survive off the warm beds for long enough that it can reinfect and one beds don't mount a very good immune response against mange disease and end up getting a very severe form of of the disease called custom mange there's probably no one solution at the moment we don't have any technique that really controls it and

while populations and that's perhaps the key challenge. back at the sleepy borrow the secretary. is more of a solution to be. the whole approach to the current epidemic needs to change we need to remove. the martians and know that the reality is that the majority of these animals need to be euthanized in the best interests of the other. that's the harsh reality of where we're at. i know a lot of people want to accept that. but with manged one bets that we work with for every 100. probably around 90 percent that's the reality so that 10 percent that do saval those are your core animals to concentrate on those have

a stronger immune system that can recover and that can be reintroduced to the wild and that's the gene pool that you want to work on. it's unfortunate that we've got to this position. it is what it is we need to work smarter before we really want out of time. they've got the welcoming committee. marcus foth is a professor of industrial design he's working with donna to create an alternative treatment solution. manged wombats brought into care so this one hears rumors and closure. for 2 years they've been testing baker who borrow hospitals many quarantine stations built on top of natural barros if i open this worked on here you can see there is a very regular normal natural woman. that a woman

a healthy woman has constructed for us and that's how the resign started then we can build the party and so this is where a woman can come in when it wants to feed wildlife carers could use these borrowed hospitals to treat one bats with a pill while they are feeding because it's a very quick to administer treatment just once a week the rest of the week there is no other stress factors and we're trying to limit any other influence of human contact so the main purpose behind this is to create a less intrusive process for a while one yeah but the sad reality is that a lot of warm beds in the wild if the mange infection has progressed to such a stage that they have such an infection they eventually sometimes turn blind or deaf this particular treatment methods is not going to save them in fact the humane thing would be to put them down for a hospital from what i understand of them fantastic for tracing individual one

that's a marine and one that's into captivity but they're never going to manage or replace disease management at the population scale those things always have a limitation on the number of animals that can go through them we know it works we use it here for the last 2 years if we could recreate that over and over again in the different states managed by the people who currently put their energy towards mange wombats in the wrong way they could become their own quarantine centers that people could utilize the results would speak for themselves. really upset with. all the disparity. that he very way. that he. is. dealing with trouble has become a part of everyday life we don't and professor paul says he couldn't have done the project we've now done is completely amazing having worked for so many years day in

day out and night and night all the cheers or beautiful woman whisper and understand some quiet quite naturally. middle eastern country. people on the lower the interest heat. storage. the. stupidest thing to structure your. view and the grassroots one about conservation groups os sounding a very similar warning about marriage yet the government and academics are saying the population nationally is stable and there is nothing to be concerned about the people who sit at desks. spend one week with me

those people here were saying and making noise remarks they are not working every single day with the magnitude that we say that makes me angry i almost want to say day you because what they put out as economics and so-called experts is what the world is believing and it's not the true message of what's going on. so don't tell me there's not a problem. rather come and see what we deal with directly to tell me this or sorry . wow. despite the challenges they face the sanctuary's work doesn't stop when you want bats ways of drawing. dead lady 10 minutes from going to reveal each so i'm going to have to go down. get this one battling come back come here.

no it's all in the homs of general of the of and his transitional military council which he leads when he came. in about 448 hours ago to demand for the removal of those body caves he had stated that once the budget kids were to move then they would resume office of the 2 hours now there was some sort of the whole previous that they medically after their we all pending all this through this within the protesters that the military council will all the representatives are going to talks but that did not toughen and then what happened earlier this morning with which the rapid support forces went to the protest area and tried to move the body codes the protesters say they have pulled for their own security and now about is raising tension and putting it another

level out as there is not a day there with that update for us from khartoum thank you mohammed well now let's speak to our ally who is a specialist on sudan and a senior lecturer at kill university and he joins us now from there in the u.k. al i want to start by asking you more about these rapid support forces how large are they and just who is in charge. this is a very large force that operates as a kind of special unit they evolved from the joint good militias fought in in darfur in 2003 and after 2000 saree says recently they have been playing a very active part in should only use domestic politics in terms of providing security they are currently for example fighting in the war in yemen they are responsible to one of the most powerful general. or so-called hamidi. this is a very large force but also very what resources are capable of. i think creating

a lot of chaos if they want to let me ask you a little more about him e t he is also the vice president in charge of the transition how's he regarded by the protesters. i think he is one of the people that is seen within the military council with huge suspicion remember the military from the very beginning has been suspected and there were debates as to way that the can be a reliable partner in terms of getting the sudanese revolution or over the line and now i think what happened over the course of the last 2 days of research rect of that debate again and the fact that the suspended the negotiation simply because they wanted protesters to remove these barricades. again i think is bringing back that debate because this is simply not a sufficient description

a reasonable basis to suspend the negotiations the reason why protesters are there in the 1st place is to go and see that the revolution would stay on course the military would transfer power to civilians so the biggest way for the sudanese military to actually. remove these particles were to go ahead with the negotiation complete the negotiation 100 over power to the military knew that they were under doing so i think simply undermines the confidence of the protesters and the people who are on the posts or so i think it's cool it's a confrontation and confrontations lead to violence well we've seen this violence take place this week and we're hearing that a lot of that was instigated because of the actions of the r.s.s. those forces are usually under the command of the national intelligence services but also at times the armed forces i believe who's calling the shots now in terms of what they're allowed to do. so they are formally from a formal kind of structure a point of view they are

a part of the sudanese security services but they are also accountable to to the military because of the military no is in control of the country but also before this transition the military had a very significant role in terms of how the support forces operated there were they are not just security forces they are also military forces or participate in fighting well that's al i know that frontal university speaking to us from the u.k. thanks for being with us on out of there. well thousands of algerians are back on the streets of the capital in protest they're demanding democratic reforms and the removal of politicians from former president. his government presidential elections are expected in july the longtime leader was forced to step down last month and police have arrested several people for corruption. well u.s.

president donald trump is seeking to reshape american immigration policy his new plan calls for more emphasis on young professionals and less on family ties and random lotteries democrats have dismissed his proposals as condescending and as castro reports from washington there is little chance congress will approve his plan. in. the face of immigration to the us would look very different under the new white house plan more affluent more educated and most likely more white make no mistake this plan would have a devastating effect on millions of people around the world who like me have dreams of coming to this land of opportunity if adopted our plan will transform america's immigration system into the pride of our nation and the envy of the modern world the plan president trump introduced thursday would rank would be immigrants by

english proficiency employment salary level and age those rank higher would have priority to become u.s. residents meanwhile the existing system of allowing immigrants to sponsor family members would be cut in half currently 66 percent of legal immigrants come here on the basis of random chance their admitted soley because they have a relative. in the united states and it doesn't really matter who that relative is the plan has little chance of passing kong. brous democrats and moderate republicans there have said they want to extend legal protections to young immigrants who were brought to the country illegally as children. trump took away those protections when he took office his new plan makes no mention of fixing their status at the end of the day this is the only place a lot of us call home and the only place that we can drive it becomes the person

that our parents always dreamed of us becoming pro immigration advocates joined democratic leaders to unveil a replica of the statue of liberty here in washington it's a protest of the administration's plan which also seeks to eliminate the diversity visa and overhaul of the asylum system at the us mexico border a record number of central american families seeking asylum in the u.s. has strained the immigration system a republican bill in congress backed by the president would allow families with children to be detained for up to $100.00 days the white house says it's the only way to tackle illegal immigration and is calling for priority sections of the border wall to be built democrats in congress have refused to build the wall and say trump's newest immigration plan gives them no reason to support it castro al-jazeera washington and from mexico city john homan explains how the proposed

changes to u.s. immigration policy being received by its southern neighbors is. there hasn't been any reaction so far from the mexican government to president trump's speech on migration but in a way there's already been a sort of an answer to his rhetoric on border security to his rhetoric on people coming from central american countries mainly home do it ourselves salvador and guatemala those countries suffering a lot of toilets a lot of poverty making their way through mexico to get to the united states president lopez obrador administration have sort of started a low profile crackdown you could perhaps call it against that type of migration just to the as an example there's been 80 percent more detentions this april of people coming through from central america and there were from the year before and there's been sort of saw a.
