A three-year-old girl has been airlifted to hospital after suffering serious cuts when she was attacked by a kangaroo on the porch of a home near Armidale in NSW's Northern Tablelands.
NSW Ambulance paramedics treated the girl at the scene before the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service airlifted her from Armidale Airport to John Hunter Hospital in Newcastle on Thursday evening.
"The little girl suffered serious lacerations after the kangaroo was seen to access the rear porch of the property where the child was," the helicopter service said in a statement.
She was reported to be in a stable condition in hospital where she was undergoing further treatment.
