Tender parenting.

Almost human like, the kangaroo's relationship with its youngster seems so tender.

This mob lives by the sea, feeding on very lush grassy fields. The wet climate makes their life much easier and with very few predators to fear from they are particularly tame despite being wild and free.

Top dog

Like in an old-school duel: at dawn, on the edge of the sea cliff they established who is the top dog, err.., top kangaroo.
A few kicks, a couple of punches (really) but no loss of blood, to verify the pecking order.
