Kangaroos

Kangaroos are large animals that live in zoos. Kangaroos are called marsupials not mammals. Marsupials all have pouches.
When a mother kangaroo finds a new feeding spot the joey always rides with her. The mother kangaroo finds it very hard to hump fast with her joey in her pouch. When a dingo or a farm dog comes nand chases the mother kangaroo the marsupial drops her baby in a place then comes bck for the baby later. After the mother has dropped the baby she can escape.
Kangaroos often feed at night and really early in the morning. Kangaroos usually rest in the middle of the day.
Father kangaroos are the boss of the mob. If another kangaroo wants to be the boss they fight with their claws and their paws.
