The American influencer that He pressed the fire Of course, taking a mother’s Wombat baby in Australia and publishing a video of social networks about it is to break their silence.
Sam Jones spoke in a series of Instagram publications, apologizing for the video and affirming that he did not share it to get I like or for entertainment, and that the incident was not organized.
“When we found the mother and Joey on a road, without moving, I was extremely worried. As the Wombats are very beaten on the Australian roads, I stopped to make sure they left the road safely and were not beaten,” Jones began in an Instagram stall shared on Friday, which has been eliminated since then. “However, as seen in the video when I approached them, the Joey did not move or escaped. I worried that I could have been sick or injured, and made a quick judgment to pick up the Joey and see if this was the case.”
The video of Jones of herself with Baby Kombat has been eliminated from her Instagram. In the clip, you could see Jones running down a street to a car while holding the chillido Baby Wombat, while the Kombat mother persecuted her.
“I ran, not to start his mother’s Joey, but for fear that he could attack me,” Jones wrote in his statement. “The rapid trial I did at this time was never a place of damage or theft of a Joey.”
The end of the Jones video since he was eliminated does not show if Baby Kombat and his mother gathered. In his statement, Jones said he gathered the couple.

“While I was incredibly excited to see such an incredible animal, I looked quickly and immediately returned it to his mother,” Jones said. “I made sure that the mother and Joey gathered, they left together and that they left the road.”
“I have made a great reflection on the situation and I have realized that I did not handle this situation the best I should,” he continued, then adding in apologies, “I learned from the situation and really regret the anguish that I have caused.”
Jones’s video publication caused a violent reaction and outrage, and some Australians asked Jones to be deported. The Australian prime minister, Anthony Albanese, has also weighed several times in public comments.
“It’s a shocker. You know, a Kombat is an animal of slow and peaceful movement, and taking a baby from this mother was distressing, clearly,” clearly, “clearly,” clearly, “clearly.” Albanese said in a radio interview on March 14. “And I really were distressing the video that was there. I don’t know what the hell he thought this woman was doing. You know, there are many, more wild animals in Australia, could have gotten into trouble if he had picked up his babies. But to collect a baby from baby, he is not on.”
In a Instagram statement On Friday, Jones responded to the people who called her “villain”, stating that “things … are not how they seem.”
“On the maintenance of a Kombat, Miles threaten my life,” he wrote. “Let me be clear; these same people should understand the reality of Australia today. For readers who are so angry at my wrong attempt to help and I am a hunter, they are not blind to their country.”
Jones declared that, according to Australian law, wombats and kangaroos can sometimes be legally sacrificed for several reasons.
“While the prime minister hurts me for collecting a Kombat, I implore him to take a good, difficult, see what is currently being done in Australia around the real problem he faces, the lack of power for tens of thousands of Australians and the treatment of his native wildlife,” Jones said. “Then, he decides for yourself, if I, a person who certainly makes mistakes, I am really your villain.”
Wild life experts say Taking a baby animal from your mother or your home can be distressing for the animal.
