Kangaroos
need very little water to survive and can go
months without drinking water.
The kangaroo usually rests in the shade during
the day and comes out to eat in the late afternoon
and night when its much cooler. It eats mostly
grass.
A kangaroo carries its baby in its pouch. The
baby is born really tiny and crawls into its
mother's pouch. The baby lives in its mother's
pouch till its quite large. Even when its quite
large it still drinks milk from a teat in its
mother's pouch. It sometimes jumps into its
mother's pouch head first when frightened.
