Not sure he should be letting his dog off the lead unless he's in an enclosed space with no animals if he's doing this, apparently he's killed a sheep too?

The long-haired funnyman watched on in horror as Bear killed a wallaby near his Henley-on-Thames mansion, but he was praised by one local resident for springing in to action and saving the dying creature's joey

Russell Brand saved a baby wallaby’s life - just moments after his pet dog killed its mother.

The comedian, 46, was walking his German Shepherd, named Bear, near his £4.1 million home in Henley-on-Thames in Oxfordshire.

The town is well known for its population of wild wallabies, which are believed to have originated from a group of cute marsupials who escaped from a private collection twenty years ago.

Dad-of-two Russell, who is a vegan and has not eaten meat since he was 14, is said to have been left very upset by the incident, although he did manage to rescue the vulnerable joey.



A local resident told The Sun that the horrific run-in with the wallaby, and Russell’s life-saving actions, had been the talk of the town.

The source said: “Absolutely no one is *blaming Russell or his dog — it’s just a horrible accident.

“He is a very caring man with animals — he has plenty of pets and they’re all his babies.

“I understand he’s devastated over what happened. It’s really sad.”

It's been reported in the past that Bear once killed a sheep.
