The heart-wrenching moment a male kangaroo cradled his female companion as she died was captured by a photographer in Australia.
According to the Daily Mail, Evan Switzer noticed the the kangaroos while going for a walk in Queensland on Monday morning.
Switrzer said he ran home to get his camera and snapped a few photos of the kangaroos.
The photos show the male holding the female and she lays on the ground. A joey stands beside the two, and the female kangaroo appears to reach for her joey one last time before passing away.
Switzer said the female kangaroo had no visible wounds.
