A zoo has said it is "so excited" to have spotted a potoroo joey in its enclosure for the first time.
Marwell Zoo, near Winchester in Hampshire, said the tiny southern long-nosed potoroo joey was probably three months old, but has only just been seen diving in and out of first-time mum Truffle's pouch.
The nocturnal marsupials are native to south-eastern Australia and resemble small wallabies.
Arun Selby, primates and small mammals keeper at Marwell, said: "It's a great opportunity to learn because we haven't had a baby potoroo here before."
