@brutamerica: A miniature dachshund named Valerie has survived 500 days alone on Kangaroo Island after disappearing from a campsite in November 2023. Spotted on wildlife cameras in March 2025 by @Kangala Wildlife Rescue💚🦘 , she’s proven difficult to catch—evading traps and fleeing from rescue efforts. Wildlife experts believe her size, speed, and instincts have helped her survive, but also make her rescue a challenge. #ValerieTheDachshund #KangarooIsland #LostDogSurvivor #WildlifeRescue #MiniDachshund #DogSurvivalStory #500DaysAlone #AustraliaDogs #RescueMission
