Thread: Horny Kangaroos

Heh , this is a bit of a turnaround , what next , the sheep



A frisky kangaroo has caused mayhem after stalking women in an area known as the Honeymoon Ranges in northern Australia.

Female residents in the isolated town of Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory have complained that the animal has been lurking and making its intentions very clear.

The Northern Territory News, which more often makes headlines by reporting on the sexual antics of its human population, gave the problem front page attention under the headline "Horny Roo Stalks NT Women".

It quoted one witness saying: "I turned around and saw this big kangaroo behind me, so I hastened my steps.

"It seemed a bit odd, but I continued walking and didn't think much about it. Then on the return walk he was there waiting for me," she said.

"He started circling me. There was no doubt about what he wanted, the randy old thing - it was a huge kangaroo and quite intimidating."

Male red kangaroos can grow over six feet tall and weigh 200 pounds, and can cause serious injury or death if they attack.

The kangaroo was described by the newspaper as a "jolly jumper", and made his amorous intentions clear.

She added: "I yelled at him to go away, waved my hands about and let him know I wasn't interested, but he was persistent - I'll give him that."

It also bounded into a local speedway race meeting in the town, which is located about 500 miles south of Darwin.

Tanya Wilson said: "I thought it was strange that a kangaroo would come to such a noisy place, but I grew up around kangaroos so I went up to say hello.

"There I was having a nice chat to him when I heard others calling out to me, warning me to step away," the mum-of-three said.

She added: "I didn't take any notice of them because I didn't think I had anything to worry about - I thought he was just a cute, friendly kangaroo."

But other speedway fans could tell what the roo wanted and the newspaper reported that one man tried to intervene and was punched in the face by the animal before it hopped off
