Giant kangaroo intimidates Brisbane residents


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

Residents in North Lakes, Brisbane, are being kept on the hop.

A massive kangaroo has been spotted on walking tracks in parks and even on the golf course.

I have to admit, I have a soft spot in my heart for Kangaroos! :)

Still, I can see where a big buck like that demands to be given a wide berth.

Looks like he's not too nasty. If it were a bear then that would be a different story.

Yikes! That's one big critter. I'm glad all we have around here are raccoons.

I'll take Kangaroo's over Bears any day!!

True, but they very, very rarely get aggressive unless fighting each other or defending themselves. Indeed I've just checked and the only known fatality from a kangaroo attack involved someone trying to get it away from his dogs, way back in 1936 - the dogs apparently instigated the fight.. If you back away from an angry roo, s/he will generally not bother fighting further - typical lazy aussies, just like me.. They are normally very docile and approachable.

They do kill people when they get hit by cars and cause accidents, tho..

Drop Bears, however....

I am still going to be happy about Roo's over bears.

Aussie and British Time??

Gosh, you know drummers!! They do not exactly grow on trees!!

They tend to swing from them :w00t:

But I am just jealous, I hate they way they can just put a pair of sticks on the dashboard and boom - they are allowed to park in a disabled parking spot!!

The story of the Roo reminds me of when I was little.

My grand-dad took us to the zoo for the day.

Anyway - a Big Red who of course was behind a caged fence...suddenly aimed at me and urinated on my pretty dress and shoes.

I remember being quite upset about the incident - so we called it a day and went home.

You can tell when a drummer is at your door.

The knock speeds up.
