Kangaroo (Eastern Grey)

The Eastern Grey kangaroo is the second largest and heaviest living marsupial in Australia. Marsupial mammals are a group of animals that carry and nurse their young in a pouch. Grey kangaroos hop on their powerful hind legs with speeds of over 35 mph and travel for long distances at 15 mph. They can jump 6 feet high and cover 25 feet in a single leap.

Did you know…kangaroos are primarily left-handed, using that hand for tasks 95% of the time. They typically use their left hand for precision and their right for strength.
