Rodger Kangaroo
« on: December 10, 2018, 09:59:31 am »
Did you read that Rodger the kangaroo died?  He was called The Bodybuilder kangaroo because he had huge muscles.  He was 12 and they say he died of old age.  :( He lived in Australia

I never heard of this character. Was he at a zoo in Australia?

You seem sad about it. I guess he must have been adorable.

Nope. Checked online and he's definitely not adorable in my book. But I guess maybe because his momma was killed and he was adopted, that made him special to people.

To each his own.

I saw photos of him and thought they were photoshopped! Not the usual kangaroo photos I have seen. I know a kick from one can kill you, but I had no idea they are boxers too.

His son Monty is the new alpha male there now.

Never heard of Rodger.

Sounds amazing. They are very interesting animals.

I also have never heard of him, but it is very sad.  Perhaps his size had something to do with it.

Never heard of him. 


When I read the topic title without seeing the content, I figured this thread was some comparison of my two favorite TV shows as a youngster: Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood and Captain Kangaroo!

I had never heard of him until I saw where he got hit by a car.  Personally I would think the pictures were fake.
