Today, while on a road trip through Australia with my dad, we were both complaining that we had yet to see any kangaroos. Suddenly, we saw one up real close. The rental car saw it even closer. FML

Kangaroos hate tourists.

Perhaps you should check your eyesight. Apparently you didn't see where you were driving either.

It hopped it's last hop.

That is exactly why I hate driving in Australia. They may look all cute and cuddly, but they are very unpredictable and dangerous when they are on the side of the road watching you as you are driving passed.

Stick to the east coastal areas, thats where all the fun's at anyway; Kings Cross, Surfer's Paradise, Steresonic, Defqon. 1, Central Coast beaches, Movie World, Wet 'n Wild, its all there.

Wet n' Wild is sick as! Gonna go this weekend ;) Might bump into some roos on the way , wouldn't be surprised at all!

Ya right, WA is where it's at :P

They're our equivalent of deer.

YA JINXED IT!

Hope both of you are fine. Did the kangaroo make it?

Well you got to see one. A little close for comfort in my opinion, but still.

too bad u had to see your first kangaroo like that but for some reason the first thought in my mind was a least u could have your first time tasteing kangaroo steaks

As they say be careful what you wish for lmfao

we have the same kind of story with tourist up here in canada, except with moose, and when you hit one with your car.... you wont wish to see one ever again xD

Well, with an attitude like that, I'd be surprised if anyone gave you a smile. Don't judge a whole country based on the actions of a few people :)

Sounds like you need to watch where you are going OP.

do you know how quick a roo is? you can be fully alert and bang, you've hit a roo, quite often don't see them until about hslf a second before you hit it
