Check Out Jelly Roll Playing With Australian Wildlife

Jelly Roll’s trip to Australia has been a huge success.  Not only are his performances killing it, but he was able to pet some Australian wildlife.  So, I’d say he’s doing just fine.

He made a visit to a wildlife sanctuary and got to pet some adorable animals.  The wombat and koala were cool, but the newborn quokka stole the show. 

Jelly said, “I am fixing to faint.  This might be the greatest day of my whole life.”

He even FaceTimed his wife Bunnie Xo for help naming it. She said, “You gotta name her something country.”

They landed on “Loretta” . . . paying tribute to Loretta Lynn.  And to seal the deal, Jelly played a snippet of “Coal Miner’s Daughter” for the baby quokka.

Jelly and Bunnie have long been animal lovers, and now Jelly wants to adopt even more.  He said, “We could start rescuing quokkas . . . What do they cost?  I’ll buy Loretta right now.”

To bring it all full circle, Jelly already has a quokka tattoo.  He’s said that he’s “infatuated” with them because they’re the “happiest animal on earth.”
