Dumfries and Galloway search for escaped wallaby has 'exhausted all possible options'
Three-year-old Parma wallaby Wallace remains on the loose after his escape from Crazy Critters Experience. The search for an escaped wallaby has 'exhausted all possible options' of finding the little creature. Wallace got out of his enclosure from Crazy Critters Experience at Johnstonebridge on April 24. Since then, a huge search has taken place including drones, dogs and experts from Galloway Mountain Rescue Team. But the three-year-old Parma wallaby remains on the loose. In a Facebook post from Crazy Fritters Experience owner Luke Mitchell, he said: 'It is with great sadness we announce we have exhausted all possible options of finding Wallace. 'Eight days from morning until night, little sleep, not even managed to finish a meal in eight days. 'We have had thermal and image recognition drones from • Local game keeper • 33 Air Solutions • Galloway Mountain rescue 'We have covered acres upon acres of land and forestry. 'We have had scent trained dogs and tracking dogs from UK Deer Track and Recovery in and neither have managed to trace a scent. 'We have searched mornings, afternoons, nights, early hours and had no success. 'We have made traps and left familiar items along with supplement food and had no results 'We have ran out of options to try and locate where he is, all evidence is suggesting he is nowhere near, in fact there's no evident other than possible sightings that he was 'loose', the lack of traceability or even signs of wallaby are none existent. 'I am hopeful and praying that Wallace has gone off on his own and will be found/seen or make his way home soon so this search leads onto a location or some form or intel to his whereabouts. 'Please continue to keep your eyes peeled and call us immediately if you see any signs of him.' It is believed on the night Wallace escaped he had been frightened by dogs and he hurt himself while getting out of his enclosure. The three-year-old is thought to be the only Parma wallaby ever to be hand-reared after he rejected by his mum. The small marsupial native to forests and densely-vegetated areas of northeastern New South Wales, Australia. They are described as being 'about the size of a stout cat' and live mainly under thick plant cover in the wild, only active at night when they emerge to feed on grasses and small plants. They are so shy and elusive, Parma wallabies were thought to be extinct until their rediscovery in the 1960s. Anyone who can help or thinks they have seen Wallace should call Luke Mitchell from Crazy Critters Experience on 07546 912001.

Chicago Med's Luke Mitchell Hyped Ripley's 'Perfect Way To Go Out' In Claustrophobic New Episode, So I'm Glad Chicago Fire's Mouch Will Be There
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. The main action of Chicago Med usually goes down within the walls of Gaffney, ranging from in the epic three-part Avengers-esque crossover event to Dr. Archer ending up on acid. That won't be the case in the next episode of the 2025 TV schedule, airing on March 5 and streaming next day with a Peacock subscription. Called "Down in a Hole," Ripley well end up... well, down in a hole to try and save lives, risking his own in the process. Luke Mitchell spoke with CinemaBlend about the experience and working with Chicago Fire's Christian Stolte to make it happen. In "Down in a Hole," Ripley has to try and save a woman and her daughter when they're trapped down in an abandoned well, and the preview proves that this definitely isn't just a repeat of what Burgess went through on Chicago P.D. in a well. It also looks like Luke Mitchell didn't have a whole lot of elbow room while filming, and he shared how Med went above and beyond to make it look as good as it does: It was very claustrophobic. They had to make these sets as tight as possible. One of the first things Anna Dokoza, our producing director who directed this episode, said to me was like, You're not drinking any water that episode.' [laughs] Basically insinuating that once I'm in the hole, I'm in the hole. I'm not allowed out to pee. I had the crew coming up and measuring me at the end of last year to like find out exactly how wide my shoulders were, exactly how tall I was. At that moment, I was like, 'Oh, dear. I think I'm really going to be in for it here.' But you know what? It really did add to the experience. It really did help that feeling of being down in a hole, which is difficult to fake, let's be honest. Our crew did an amazing job. Fortunately, the claustrophobic set helped Luke Mitchell rather than unnerved him too much while filming, and he was clearly enthusiastic about the episode when we spoke ahead of its NBC debut. Ripley presumably will be considerably less enthusiastic than the actor, although he'll have some solid support from elsewhere in One Chicago: Chicago Fire's Mouch. Christian Stolte spent a fair amount of the "In the Trenches" crossover at Gaffney, with Mouch interacting with Ripley at the hospital. It should be interesting to see the positions switched, with Ripley pulling a move that we usually see from the heroes at Firehouse 51. The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. alum previewed what to expect from the two joining forces: You get a decent amount of Mouch and Ripley working together and a decent amount of their bonding. That bonding is, I will say, fast-tracked somewhat through the course of the episode and the events that transpire… Saving lives and near death experiences. Of course, Ripley isn't in the best state of mind heading into this big episode after the loss of Sully, fallout, and then breakup with Hannah. So, how prepared is he for this extremely perilous journey down in a hole? Luke Mitchell previewed: I think ordinarily, Ripley's that sort of guy. I don't think he had to be in the mental space that he is in to do what he does. But maybe there's just an extra little bit of going all-in to him at this moment in time. There's so many different levels and layers to it, but him feeling like he's a failure, him feeling like he needs to prove himself to himself at the very least. I don't think he's doing it for any applause or anything like that. It is who he is, but I think right now, he's ready to go all-in and if this is how Ripley ends, trying to save the lives of two innocent people, then in his eyes, I think that that would be the perfect way to go out. Ripley isn't going down into a hole because he has a sudden death wish, and I doubt any fans would have been surprised if he was up to risk his life to save others when everything was still going smoothly for him. We can just hope that Ripley won't actually be going out by the end of the episode, even if saving lives would be his "perfect way." For now, check out what's to come in "Down in a Hole" on March 5: As usual, Chicago Med kicks off NBC's hit One Chicago Wednesday primetime block at 8 p.m. ET, followed by Chicago Fire at 9 p.m. ET with somebody seemingly on death's door and then Chicago P.D. at 10 p.m. ET with Reid causing trouble for Voight. All three shows are also streaming on Peacock, with past episodes available now and new episodes streaming next day.
