A 77-year-old man was attacked and killed Sunday by a wild kangaroo that authorities believe he kept as a pet at his home in southwest Australia, police said. His death marked the first fatal kangaroo attack in Australia in 86 years.

If it's his pet, how could it be a wild kangaroo?

Any critter that groups of are called a “Mob” is probably best avoided.

I once thought about having a dingo as a pet.

Kangaroos have been known to drag a dog into water and drown them. I bet that dog was surprised, it won’t try that again. The man? If he wants to box a roo let him suffer the consequences.

He punched the Kangaroo once and was smart enoughto walk away. That thing was not scared of anyone there.
