We had a pet Kangaroo. Northern "red". I hit its mom with the car. Went to see if it was dead or alive. Found baby (joey) in her pouch. Grew into a six foot plus Male (Boomer). Used to scratch on the back door to be let in... very cute, very friendly. Named him " Casserole". (As in kangaroo tail stew, or Casserole) But we never ate him! We eventually went north and released him back into the wild. Got some pics of him when he was a joey somewheres. Also had a baby Emu for a while. Named her Ken. (short for Kentucky.)
