Kangaroo Citing in My Neighborhood
I live in Canada
There have been several reports of a kangaroo seen in my neighborhood. I live in a wooded area with a stream running through in Canada. While we have our share of racoons, squirrels, chipmunks, possums, coyote, red fox, Mallard ducks and herons, this is a first.
It is all over the local news and community Facebook. No zoo has claimed responsibility, so it is quite the mystery. No one seems to have a clue where this poor animal came from. Was someone keeping a kangaroo illegally and it has escaped.
I feel very bad for this animal. It is freezing cold here, the roads are packed with cars moving fast, and I can’t fathom how one would catch a kangaroo.
We have been warned to keep our distance.
To top it off, I was walking as usual through my local park yesterday. It is surrounded by dense bush and has a stream running through. It was just before dusk, and I was headed home on the path adjacent to the forest. Didn’t a head pop out of the trees ten feet ahead and then pop back in and disappear.
Sure, I had just seen for the first time a deer, I raced home to tell my husband what I had had the fortune to glimpse.
