Yes it is a shame we can't keep native mammals as pets. I would love a pet sugar glider. Americans can keep them, but not us [1].

A friend got a special permit and re-habbed injured native animals in his home. At any one time he often had baby kangaroos, wallabys, koalas, etc. They're all extremely cute. Bottle feeding a kangaroo in a hanging sock is fun.

When they're old enough he releases them back into the wild.
