Killer 'Roos

Everybody thinks we've got it easy in Australia. And everybody thinks kangaroos are big cute things like Skippy.

Wrong. Australia is full of dangerous wildlife, various hyper-poisonous beasties. And even kangaroos can be dangerous. One recently attacked an old lady on her ranch in central New South Wales.

Hey, those things are well over 6 feet tall and adults weigh over 200 pounds. And they have big, strong claws that can disembowel a person in short order.

The lady, Rosemary Neal, was saved when her dog charged the irritable kangaroo, who hopped away.

Crikey.
