Kangaroos

Kangaroos are large animals which live in parts of Australia.
A joey is a baby kangaroo. At six months old the joey can take its first hops.
A mob is a large group os kangaroos. The strongest male in the mob is the boss. If another male kangaroo wants to be the boss they have a fight with their claws, feet and tail.
Kangaroos are not normal mammals. Kangaroos are marsupials. When a baby is born it pulls itself into its mother’s pouch with her fur.
