Kangaroos




My Dad likes to play golf on the weekends. He took these photos when he was at the golf course. In some places kangaroos live on the golf courses. There is a lot of space and grass for them to eat and they are safe from other animals. Generally they are quite tame and are not afraid of people. You can't pat them though because they will kick you. If a kangaroo gets angry or feels like it is in danger it will balance on it's tail and kick forward with it's powerful legs. Kangaroos also have sharp claws on their front paws. Sometimes the mother kangaroos will have a baby in their front pouch.
