Great action series, always amazed how they use their tails

Thanks Gaz, i found out the hard way when i was younger. The year was 1988 and that was the year of the boxing kangaroo. As a stupid little brat i went up to a roo and pretended to spa with it. It just looked at me like the idiot i was. As i turned and was about to walk off it sat back on its tail and kicked me in the back. Ended up in hospital with cuts to my back and needing tetnus. Learnt at a yound age to respect nature

[Gaz]

Yep...I have a healthy respect as well, they can cut you up pretty quick!!

Great set of shots Marc. They do look so soft and cuddly but those big bucks can be scary.
