Don't let go! Video captures heartwarming moment Johanssen the baby kangaroo clings to his keeper's leg as he tries to leave him

A needy joey at the Kangaroo Sanctuary in Alice Springs was filmed clinging to his keeper. Footage shows the heartwarming exchange as the joey wraps his paws around the keeper's arm and jumps in front of him to stop him leaving. 


The keeper reassures the joey it's just a temporary separation and promises to come back, but the joey holds on. Both keeper and joey are stars of the popular BBC show Kangaroo Dundee.
