Sam Jones — the U.S. influencer who stole a baby wombat — was allegedly set to appear on an Australian talk show this weekend, but instead she sent a pre-recorded video message calling out authorities for mass wildlife slaughtering.

A video of the online influencer snatching the joey from the side of its mother drew calls for her to be deported. She left the country Friday.

An American influencer who sparked outrage after posting a video of her snatching a baby wombat from its mother while in Australia apologized on Saturday, saying she had acted out of concern for the young animal's welfare.
