Red+Kangaroo

Red Kangaroo by Matthew

The Red Kangaroo is a marsupial. It is 4 1/4 to 6 1/2 feet long (male) and 3 to 4 feet (female). They weigh 50 to 200 pounds. When the Red Kangroo takes a leap it uses its legs. The Red Kangaroo legs are short. Yet its hind legs are long and powerful. Red Kangaroos live in the hot dry plains. When the Red Kangaroo takes a jump it makes a big hump.
