Rex, the wallaby that went missing Monday night from a South Jersey animal sanctuary after breaking out of its enclosure, was found safe Tuesday night. 

Lots of Love Farm in Williamstown, New Jersey, said Rex was found at a Walmart. 

"THANK YOU EVERYONE YOU'RE ALL AMAZING," Lots of Love Farm wrote on Facebook. "HE MUST REALLY LIKE WALMART!!!LOL." 

Ron Layden, who owns Lots of Love, said it's possible that someone accidentally left Rex's pen open before he escaped sometime around 4 or 5 p.m. on Monday.

"He's probably hunkered down somewhere," Layden said. "But I don't think the cold's going to bother him."

Monroe Township Police said several officers responded to reports of a loose "kangaroo" that was almost hit by a car while crossing the street near East Malaga Road and South Black Horse Pike around 9 p.m. Monday.

Police also said they got another call about the wallaby being spotted in the Williamstown Walmart parking lot off the Black Horse Pike. Several videos posted on social media showed a kangaroo-like animal hopping around outside the store before being located Tuesday night.

Lots of Love Farm said on Facebook Tuesday afternoon that a drone pet locating company helped with the search.

Wallabies are similar to kangaroos, but a bit smaller. They use their long tails for balance, and they typically hop around on their powerful hind legs. They are native to areas of the South Pacific like Australia and Papua New Guinea.
