Kangaroos are a nice kind of animal in zoos but in real life they are very violent and dangerous. They are very special because they can hold there joey (a baby kangaroo) in the little pouch.The comfortable hopping speed for a red kangaroo is about 20–25 km/h (13–16 mph), but speeds of up to 70 km/h (44 mph) can be attained over short distances.The kangaroo is a marsupial from the familymacropodidae (macropods, meaning 'large foot').
