 What is a kangaroo?

A kangaroo is an animal found only in Australia, although it has a

smaller relative, called a wallaby, which lives on the Australian island of
Tasmania and also in New Guinea.
Kangaroos eat grass and plants. They have short front legs, but very
long, and very strong back legs and tail. They use these for sitting up on and for
jumping. Kangaroos have been known to make forward jumps of over eight
meters, and leap across fences more than three meters high. They can also run at
speeds of over 45 kilometers per hour.
The largest kangaroos are the Great Grey Kangaroo and the Red
Kangaroo. Adults grow to a lenght of 1.60 meters and weight over 90 kilos.
Kangaroos are marsupials. This means that the female kangaroo has an
external pouch on the front of her body. A baby kangaroo is very tiny when it is
born, and it crawls at once into this pouch where it spends its first five months of
life.
