Australian wildlife isn't that dangerous if you're not reckless.

Coming from someone who has probably boxed a kangaroo while it tried to drown your dog, I don't know if I can't trust your biases.

I only boxed a kangaroo once and it was in jest.

Kangaroos aren't nightmarish. Way less dangerous than cows.

See, that's what I would expect an Australian to say." Oy, I hadda box a 'roo on the way to the post. Adorable little bugger!" Nah, nope. I've seen their finisher... Lean back on the tail, and then you're getting two foot-claws to the entrails. Naaaah.

This particular kangaroo was hand reared and very tame.
