Kangaroos for Kids | Learn all about these amazing marsupials

Did you know kangaroos could swim? In Kangaroos for Kids, you'll learn all about this magnificent mammal. The kangaroo is a unique animal known for its powerful hind legs and oversized feet, which help it hop quickly across the Australian landscape. Kangaroos are marsupials, which means they carry their young in pouches. They have a long, muscular tail that helps them balance while jumping. Depending on the species, they have short fur in different colors, like gray, brown, or red. Their large ears can rotate to pick up sounds from various directions, allowing them to stay alert for danger. Kangaroos are herbivores, which means they only eat plants. They mainly feed on grasses, leaves, and shrubs. They cut and chew tough plants using their strong front incisors. Plus, they have a special stomach with multiple chambers that help them break down the fibrous plant material, similar to how cows digest their food. This multi-chambered stomach lets them get all the nutrients they need from their plant-based diet. Did you know kangaroos can swim, too? When they swim, their legs work differently than on land. In the water, they use their back legs separately, moving them in a paddle motion to help them glide forward. They use their tail to steer them in the water. So, kangaroo legs are perfectly adapted on land or water to help them get around! We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about these powerful marsupials!
