How dangerous are kangaroos in Australia - REACTION

Published on 25 Feb 2023 / In Film & Animation

Things can get pretty deadly during a male kangaroo fight. They fight to establish dominance in their mob which ultimately wins a mate.

So they can be hostile with each other but are they aggressive to humans? Nature nerd, Ann Jones, breaks down their unique behaviour.

They just live in suburbs? That'll make you keep an eye out.

They don't get fat when they gain weight, they just stack on really tough muscle mass when the seasons are good and then assimilate the muscle for food when the seasons are lean..... This is efficient - in a BIG country with poor soil and huge distances between watering holes and prone to wide scale and long term drought.... So the really BIG males can stand 8' (foot) or 2.2 meters tall and weigh 90 + Kg ~220 Lbs and be popping more muscles than Arnold Schwartzenigger... They are not fundamentally dangerous... mostly.. But if one comes looking for a fight - just lower yourself, get all submissive and the fight is off.... Simple.

Or grab it in a savage head lock, snap it's neck and guess what is for dinner.... Personally I like the second idea.
