Here is a red kangaroo. Kangaroos live
in Australia. There are lots of kangaroos
in Australia, perhaps as many as
20 million! This kangaroo is scratching.
Perhaps it has got a flea!
Can you see a kangaroo in your country?
Where?
.......
Kangaroos are marsupials. The female
carries her baby in a pouch on her
tummy. Kangaroo mums can have three
babies of different ages in the pouch at
the same time. Baby kangaroos are
called joeys.
What are this kangaroo mum and her
baby looking at?
.......
Here is a big kangaroo. Kangaroos can
be very big. They can weigh over 80
kilos! What is he doing?
Has he got water in his ear? Is he
listening to something? Is he doing PE?
........
Kangaroos can hop very fast. They've
got strong tails. The tails help the
kangaroos to balance.
Do you know that kangaroos can't walk
backwards? Can you walk backwards?
