Cheeky baby kangaroo greeted world with a smile when he finally popped his head out 6 months later

A cheeky baby kangaroo greeted the world with a smile when he finally popped his head out of his mum's pouch - after hiding for six months.

The baby tree kangaroo delighted visitors at an Australian zoo when he finally plucked up enough courage to make an appearance - before quickly hiding back in his mum's pouch.

Keepers at Healesville Sanctuary in Victoria discovered a ‘jellybean sized’ joey after a routine check in April.
