Trent and Bronwyn Duggan of Melbourne, Australia, heard a crash on their roof Saturday morning. They went to investigate and found an Eastern Grey kangaroo sitting on the roof! The animal had hopped up about twelve feet to land above his comfort zone.
"It sort of sounded like three grown men line dancing on the top of my roof," Mr Duggan said.
The kangaroo didn’t know what to do, so the Duggans summoned wildlife authorities. The ‘roo was up on the roof for six hours when wildlife expert Sharon Bonnici ended the standoff by climbing up and sedating him with a tranquilizer gun. Or, as the news story puts it, "encouraged him down." You can see a raw video of the kangaroo at YouTube. -via Arbroath

It's not even past Thanksgiving, and people are putting up their roof 'roos? Wait until December!

This is Australia. The proper question is why there are not two kangaroos on his roof.
