<!-- google_ad_section_start --> On Saturday, 7-year-old Simon Kruger went missing (http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/newshome/18367974/boy-missing-in-bush-says-kangaroo-saved-him/).
He had been having lunch with his family at Deep Creek Conservation Park (http://www.environment.sa.gov.au/parks/Find_a_Park/Browse_by_region/Fleurieu_Peninsula/Deep_Creek_Conservation_Park), on South Australia's Fleurieu Peninsula, when he wandered off, following a wallaby into the bush.
He spent that night in the wilderness, surviving near-freezing temperatures.
Almost 24 hours after he disappeared — and after an extensive search by police that involved parachute flares — Simon was spotted by a rescue helicopter and winched to safety. (http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/newshome/18367974/boy-missing-in-bush-says-kangaroo-saved-him/)
Simon then recalled (http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/missing-boy-simon-kruger-7-found-safe-at-deep-creek-conservation-park/story-e6frg6n6-1226690903854) his incredible story of survival.
"Dad, I'm okay — I slept under a tree and there were kangaroos," he said (http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/missing-boy-simon-kruger-7-found-safe-at-deep-creek-conservation-park/story-e6frg6n6-1226690903854) as they were reunited.

Simon told his parents that he was picking flowers for his mother when a kangaroo approached him.
"A kangaroo came closer to him and ate the flowers from him, and the kangaroo fell asleep next to him," Simon's father, Etienne Kruger, told (http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/newshome/18367974/boy-missing-in-bush-says-kangaroo-saved-him/) 7News. "I think God sent a kangaroo to keep him warm."
"I think it was a miracle, when I smell his jacket, it's kangaroo – bush and kangaroo," Simon's mother, Linda, added (http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/newshome/18367974/boy-missing-in-bush-says-kangaroo-saved-him/).

He's a very lucky boy. Not many of these stories end well.
