Woman adopted orphaned baby wombat and raised him as her own child

Wombats are marsupials. When their baby is born, he immediately climbs into his mother’s pouch and remains in the dark for up to six months, feeding on milk. Afterwards, the baby gets out of the bag, but for another year he will live next to his mother, who feeds him, warms him on cold nights, and protects him from enemies. When little Tina became an orphan in the first days of her life, all these responsibilities fell on Sharon. The woman was glad to see how the wombat was developing outside the pouch, and did everything to make Tina happy.
