What is a "kangaroo"?

The kangaroo is a large marsupial mammal native to Australia known for its distinctive hopping locomotion and powerful hind legs. Kangaroos are known for their iconic appearance, with a long tail, strong hind legs, and large feet adapted for hopping. They have a unique reproductive system where females carry their young, called joeys, in a pouch on their belly until they are fully developed. Kangaroos are herbivorous grazers, feeding on a diet of grasses and other vegetation. They are well adapted to the arid and semi-arid regions of Australia, with specialized physiological and behavioral adaptations that allow them to thrive in these environments. Kangaroos are known for their incredible jumping ability, with some species capable of reaching speeds of up to 35 miles per hour (56 kilometers per hour) and jumping distances of up to 25 feet (7.6 meters) in a single bound. They are also social animals, typically living in groups called mobs or troops, and are known for their unique reproductive and mating behaviors. Kangaroos are considered an important symbol of Australia's wildlife and are recognized worldwide for their unique appearance and behavior.
