The Australian prime minister has criticised a US influencer after she stole a baby wombat from her mother. <\/p>\n

“Take a baby crocodile from his mother and see how you go there,” he told journalists during a news conference. <\/p>\n

Sam Jones, who describes herself as an “outdoor enthusiast and hunter” on Instagram, was filmed picking up a baby wombat by an unidentified road and running across it to a car, while its mother ran after them.<\/p>\n

The video, which was filmed in Australia, has since been deleted and Ms Jones’s Instagram account set to private. <\/p>\n

Ms Jones’s visa is being reviewed by immigration officials, Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke told the BBC, amid calls for her to be deported.<\/p>\n
