Kangaroo

Red kangaroos are the largest marsupials in Australia. A marsupial is an animal whose young develop in pouches. Male red kangaroos (sometimes called boomers) are, as their name suggests, a reddish colour. However, females (or blue fliers) are generally grey. An adult kangaroo can grow to over 1.8 metres (6 feet) tall!

Kangaroos have extremely powerful z-shaped back legs and long feet. Large tails help them balance as they jump and are used as a third leg when they move more slowly. Kangaroos use their small front legs for grooming and eating. They often lick their forearms to help them keep cool.
