Kangaroos are now one of my favorite animals after watching an episode about them the other day. They are cute and very interesting. From what I seen about them they are very good mothers and can have up to three babies at a time. The mother can have a joey who gets around on his own, a smaller one in the couch and a dormant one still inside of her.

Whats strange is that a fetus kangaroo develops for about 4 months in the pouch.. it practically crawls out of her, tiny as can be and then goes in the pouch. She also makes two different types of milk, one for the older and active kangaroo and another type for the smaller one.

I can’t get over how cute they are, especially the baby ones! Too bad there aren’t any kangaroos here, besides at the zoo.
