What is a Kangaroo?
Kangaroos are large marsupials native to Australia. They are famous for their powerful back legs, long tails, and the way they hop instead of walk. Kangaroos use their strong legs to travel quickly across the land and can leap over 25 feet in a single bound.
They usually live around 6 to 8 years in the wild, but some can reach up to 20 years. Depending on the species, kangaroos can weigh between 40 and 200 pounds (18 to 90 kilograms). Their short fur is soft and usually sandy or reddish-brown, which helps them blend into their dry surroundings.
Kangaroos are herbivores, which means they eat grass and plants. They live in groups called mobs and communicate with each other using grunts, coughs, and foot thumps. The most famous thing about kangaroos is their pouches, where baby joeys stay safe and cozy while they grow. These amazing animals are a big symbol of Australia and are loved for their unique way of moving and caring for their young.
