Helicopters Are Dropping Carrots and Sweet Potatoes For Hungry Animals In Australia
After the Australian bushfire crisis, natural habitats of thousands of animals have been destroyed. Animals living in those areas started to starve. In order to feed those animals, thousands of pounds of carrots and sweet potatoes are being dropped by Helicopters.
New South Wales government started the operation named “Operation Rock Wallaby” to feed wallabies and marsupials.
According to DailyMail Newspaper, Helicopters dropped foods for these animals in Capertree and Wolgan valleys, Yengo National Park, the Kangaroo Valley, and Curracubundi national parks. Nearly 5000 pounds of vegetables have been dropped so far.
NSW Environment Minister Matt Kean stated that they would keep their eye on the native species and they would do everything they can to protect those animals.
