'Kangaroo' Sighted on the Loose in NH!

Residents in rural Concord, NH were shocked this week when a large kangaroo was spotted hopping through backyards and fields. The kangaroo, estimated to weigh around 100 pounds, was first seen by Gary Morin and his wife as they were driving home from the grocery store.

"It was just standing there in the middle of the road," Morin said. "We slammed on the brakes and it took off into the woods."

Police were notified and several officers searched the area for the kangaroo, but it was not found. Officials believe that the kangaroo is a pet that either escaped or was released by its owner.

"I grew up in Australia and I've never seen anything like this before," said Concord resident Liza Maynard. "It's pretty cool, but also a little bit scary."

While officials advise residents not to Approach or touch the kangaroo if they see it, they stress that it is not a threat and poses no danger to humans. If you see the kangaroo, please call police so that they can ensure its safety.

Family Finds Pet Kangaroo in their Backyard

One family in Australia found an unexpected visitor hopping around in their backyard - a pet kangaroo!

The family had been away for the weekend and when they returned, they found the roo had broken into their yard and was eating the vegetables from their garden.

With no one else around to help, the family took it upon themselves to capture the kangaroo and relocate it to a nearby park.

It's not clear how the kangaroo got loose or how long it had been living in the family's backyard, but they were just glad to have safely captured it before anything bad happened.

Kangaroo Jumps Through Windshield of Moving Car

A kangaroo was captured on video hopping through the windshield of a moving car in Australia. The footage, which was shot in the town of Muswellbrook in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, shows the marsupial jumping through the glass and landing inside the vehicle.

"I couldn't believe it, I just wanted to get it off the road," said driver Scott Lomas, who was driving at the time of the incident. Lomas said that the kangaroo hopped up onto the dashboard and then jumped through the windshield. "It was pretty wild," he added.

The kangaroo was not injured in the incident and quickly ran away from the car. This is not the first time that a kangaroo has been captured on video jumping through a car windshield; a similar incident occurred in Victoria in 2016.

Woman Wakes up to find Kangaroo in her Bedroom

It's not every day that you wake up to a kangaroo in your bedroom, but that's exactly what happened to one Australian woman this week. The marsupial was spotted hopping around the house and even sleeping in the woman's bed.

Wildlife officials believe the kangaroo may have been looking for food or shelter when it wandered into the home. Fortunately, the woman wasn't harmed and the kangaroo was eventually captured and released back into the wild.

This strange encounter is just one more example of how Australia is home to some of the most unique wildlife in the world. With animals like kangaroos, koalas, and wallabies, it's no wonder that Australia is often referred to as "the Land Down Under."

Massive 'Kangaroo' Sighting caught on Camera

A massive Kangaroo has been captured on camera grazing in a rural paddock in Victoria, Australia.

The Kangaroo, which is estimated to weigh at least 90 kg's, was sighted by local farmer Darren Curnow who was out checking his fences when he came across the animal.

"I couldn't believe it when I saw it. It was as big as a cow and must have been close to 6 foot tall," said Mr. Curnow.

"I had never seen anything like it before."

The sighting comes just weeks after a large 'Kangaroo' was photographed by a motorist in the town of Gundy, NSW.

While some people are suggesting that the sightings may be of exotic wildlife such as deer or even wild boars that have escaped from farms, experts believe that the animals are most likely just oversized Kangaroos.

"It's not uncommon for Kangaroos to grow large in their natural environment and when you factor in that many of them have been feeding on good quality grass recently due to the wet weather, it's not surprising that we are seeing bigger specimens," said zoologist Dr. Jane Melville.
