Joey, the newborn wallaby at The Louisville Zoo

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The Louisville Zoo is celebrating the birth of a new resident. 

The zoo said it recently welcomed baby Joey, a newborn wallaby. In a Twitter post on Thursday afternoon, the zoo said that both Joey and his mom are doing well.

"Our joey is getting very curious about the people that give mom treats every day," the zoo posted. "We've not yet determined the sex of the tiny marsupial. What do you think it is?"

Welcome to the world, Joey!
