Red kangaroos

Red Kangaroos

The Red kangaroo family name is macropods. That means a large foot because they have a large foot. Red kangaroos are very common they can weigh up to 90kg as an adult, that is like the weight of a tortoise that has lived for years. Red kangaroo attacks are rare but they can be extremely dangerous because they can rip you. There are 11,514,298 red kangaroos but every year about 3 million are killed for meat. There is also their skin for clothes and things that we might use every day.The red kangaroos have very powerful legs they use for fighting and lots or other things like going fast when going to parts they also have very solid tails that help them when they are going faster than they are with their legs l. Male red kangaroo is a reddish-brown and has a long tail. Female red kangaroos are smaller with blue-gray with a brown tinge and a strong tail for fighting things 

They live in the across central Australia in the open grassland. They also live in open forest, woodlands and deserts. But they are mostly found in groups of about 5-10 and they are called mobs.

Kangaroos use their 2 legs for just walking and their legs and there tail too for going really fast. Kangaroo comes from australian aboriginal word  meaning i don't know this is in fact untrue, the word was first recorded in 1770 by captain james cook, when he landed in the northeast coast or Australia. Kangaroo’s are very fascinating animals. It is hard believe life that people kill them just for there meat and for things they don't really need.

people say it is one of the most venomous creature in the world but it fangs are too short to penetrate human skin.

They are called daddy long legs because of there long legs.
