This is a strange way to discover that kangaroos can balance on their tails.

Not many people get close to kangaroos. I've had the privilege to hang out with a bunch of friendly ones and they keep their back legs parallel to each other, acting as one leg and the tail acts as the other while they walk around. Bouncing is obviously different.

Not many people get close to kangaroos, sure, but there are heaps of kangaroo videos out there in the year of our lord 2025.
