Injured Kangaroo Finds Treatment in Airport Pharmacy An injured kangaroo somehow managed to make its way into Melbourne Airport in Australia on Wednesday, ending up in a pharmacy to the shock of travelers. The kangaroo apparently made the right choice: emergency responders came to the scene and the animal, nicknamed Cyrus, was placed under the care of a veterinarian. The airport is ringed partly by bushland that is apparently frequented by kangaroos. This one chose to end up at the Qantas terminal, an apt destination since the airline's symbol is the kangaroo and it is known among Australians as the "Flying Kangaroo." Officials said the animal had apparently been injured by a car and was bleeding when it got inside. After going into the pharmacy, the kangaroo was surrounded by Qantas workers and tranquilized before being turned over to the veterinarian, according to Wildlife Victoria, an animal emergency response service. "Cyrus, as he has been aptly named after one of the helpers on the scene, will be assessed by a vet following his stressful ordeal," the group said. Naturally, the animal's escapades were fodder for social media. An Australian comedian, Julia Morris, happened to be at the airport when the kangaroo came by, and she was practically at a loss for jokes to top the reality of the situation. "Ok, so I'm at Melbourne airport & a KANGAROO has just jumped into the chemist," she tweeted, using the hashtags #notajoke #soundslikeajoke #mustneedaprescriptionfilled. The kangaroo apparently did not breach airport security at any point. It was later filmed resting comfortably at a wildlife shelter after its ordeal.
