The tiny Leah, that weighs just over 400 grams (about 0.88 pounds) was then found shivering inside its pouch, still feeding from her mother. <br /> <br />Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/Ruptly <br />Twitter: http://twitter.com/Ruptly <br />LiveLeak: http://www.liveleak.com/c/Ruptly <br />Google Plus: http://google.com/+RuptlyTV <br />Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/Ruptly <br />YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/RuptlyTV <br />DailyMotion: http://www.dailymotion.com/ruptly <br />Video on Demand: http://www.ruptly.tv
