and now how can the community rebuild. and he counted was. there any more. or. 2 animal rights activists spring sheepskins blankets and bags as more and more people drop by with donations of cash for goods from alice. and she used to be a law passed and i think she was too traumatized that governance equates here almost every day sarah telling asks herself too she should just give in and. just 3 years ago she and her husband have found a new home here and started

a wildlife sanctuary for kangaroos very lucky. then the fires came. friend rang me from canberra at lunch time on the day in seiji mark just want to keep it on these for us so we kept an audit at all even pay and it was downgraded from watch an act to advice at $1230.00 that night he rang me and said it's been upgraded to a. emergency warning and it's 2 kilometers from the hell. it was all over in just an hour. so all this was graeme's all through here i think. with privet which is not a great. 1000000000 body. and we found the body so i just.

they lost all their worldly possessions to the fire. even their new car. and i really feel much about that stuff but i don't know if it's because of the great attached to losing the wildlife you know everything else just disappears into insignificance a kid. rock wallabies one bad australia's wildlife is as unique as it is endangered even in such a vast land agriculture and unchecked land use are encroaching on their habitats now the wildfires have exacerbated the situation. you know our lot why have to be so cruel. so that was our enclosure so this is where we are worries. that they had raised $35.00 kangaroos here by hand each one had a name

a history and a personality. not just the loss of. the loss a 1000000000 body. so many people get to go through life and finally you know i think that before they did it twice you know we found it emigrate for to a founder. carrie takes care of the little baby sienna. carries her around in a pouch like her mother would have if she hadn't died in the fire. a farmer brought the orphan joey by just the other day it's hard to tell who's comforting home. every time. sarah's mother helps out wherever she can. today she's brought some native grasses for the you can really pen.

and tristan chase. so i think my biggest part comes from my daughter. coming up. she must despair i mean it's great and i often make a huge sum grass here but. she you know when i came it was just everything was just black. berry and sara are slowly getting back on their feet provisionally for now they're living in a camper right next to the pen. it's a start. up some cycle who. gets to see. just so they can see too much when they 1st come in. this was still holding out for us. you know the heavy injuries or the. go respect 3 problems there they are just

surfacing and starting to type it all so. they can't take in any wild animals until they have a pen but will they ever actually be able to start over. i've had many many moments where i woke and why can't i can't quite get it you know . that it is scary see what else we've been doing this is who we are sorry. walking a why doesn't change what's happened to us it doesn't bring our guys back the dog doesn't bring the wild ones back the dog we still live with that whole i ha you know that whole one else so i guess that maybe even a few. but. i guess by continuing on. the way. we can help others you know i still made the situation has a challenge. so i. did scott have to continue really.

some 20 kilometers from sarah and gary sanctuary cargoes cemetery has 2 fresh graves the dead are a father and a son burned to death while trying to save the historical wooden houses the community was once so proud of. the fire has reached the village on new year's eve since then the farmers left homeless have taken shelter on a parking lot next door the area's one hotel is hosting its 1st gathering since the inferno a memorial service. for the 2 deceased were members of a large and respected family the son was a father of 2 little children himself the villagers are trying to forget their grief if only for a brief moment. for

weeks the sounds of water bombers overhead and sirens were heard every day in new south wales. new fires kept spreading and the caustic smoke covered the region that the rainfall that followed brought only temporary relief and even so new grass is growing and the surviving cattle wastes no time getting down to it nobody has been here to clear away the wreckage yet all of the government had promised to send in the military to do just that. electricity and water have been shut off for weeks . sarah and gary must get by without they fill their canisters for themselves and for their animals. it's you know they've been working to aid the wildlife here for some 10 years learning much of what they know now

about kangaroos along the way. kangaroos or any metropolitan is that i. as a joey gras is the new york that actually changes so when we're not coming to kids as they get older we china and the actual milk that they're on. the wheels. sometimes through the campers thin walls they can hear their joey cry out she'll be needing lots of warmth and love for the next year or so and c.n.n. needs her bottle 4 times a day. meanwhile gary feeds the few animals that did survive the fire. and did you get some help for more than you thought it would really help from because it was moving thank you very much. but still

a bit more. that's all right. then he sets off on his daily feeding grounds across the $900.00 hectares of land in the charge forest the animals one find anything else to eat or drink the kangaroo may be australia's her eldest animal but it's also hunted there leather and meat are in demand abroad especially in china most of the meat is used for dog food the authorities say the kangaroo population has to be checked otherwise it would explode but animal rights activists like sarah and kerry have always had their doubts they see the hunting methods as an outrage people come here for all around the world to save the striking group under the cover of documents there are people that go way out on a commercial hunt and kill them by the sales of these hundreds of thousands of pics and i and i kill the job we use by smashing the heads into the ground

i and there is the government sanctioned. humane why to kill an a stingray joey i can't gauri joe it's not just instinct rice it's also we can't reason with stingrays and so the pit food industry in a strike is an absolutely disgusting sprite's. now the government has stopped some of the kangaroo hunts environmentalist so worried that their population might never fully recover from the bushfires. years will pass before gary and sara expect to see a whole mob of kangaroos returned but the disaster has sent australia a wake up call campaigns are collecting donations for the continent's wealth lie from far and why few and just like gary many australians are putting food and drink out for the enemy. to see

the outpouring of love and support that we've had. i guess gives us. kids this fight that people do care about the future over a war life and you know it's been a traumatic heartbreaking. soul destroying really journey and. to say the outpouring of love that we have heads i guess is really kicked is going to these point. little sienna won't be alone here much longer. said to marlene hair. and music by me. but another one of that decides. to be less distanced. so now back again comes. in a family law that helps.

to get closer to the sun never before the dream of humankind since the days of vigorous. now a new kind of satellite soaring into heaven. and earth magnetic fields and to predict. how technology made it possible. for tomorrow

today. 30 minutes d.w. . i'm not all think. well i just sometimes i am but i said laughing when. the germans thinks deep into their jam a culture of looking at the stereotypes clad in here think the future of the country that i not. yet need to change it for this grandmother they are. it's all about. my my show join me for me jenny from d.w. . post. change the world to. the cry for freedom the fight for
