A little known fact. Very clever animal, the kangaroo.

Posted by Scythrop (Member # 5731) on :

Actually, now I think about it, it's more of a "honk" - but we call it a bark. Why not?

Posted by jebus202 (Member # 2524) on :

Why not call an apple a banana?

Posted by Scythrop (Member # 5731) on :

a good point. Probably because apples aren't long, slightly bent, and yellow.

Lulu was reared by the Richards family, who rescued her from her mother's pouch

and fed her on bottles after her mother was killed by a car over four years ago.

Oh. Whew.

Still, a little rearrangement wouldn't hurt.

and it must have been a bugger for her to chew up all those bottles. Hmmm...glass shards between the teeth [Big Grin]

ya, I saw that on CNN offbeat news the other day. I bet that kangaroo will get the best food for the rest of its life.

If we could teach kangaroos to knife-fight along with boxing, then that'd be something.
