Kangaroos actually adapt quite easily to a life in captivity if they have been raised as household pets. They cannot adapt if they have been taken from the wild.
When injured wild kangaroos are nursed back to health, they must be released into the wild or, if unlikely to survive due to the nature of their injuries, they must be accommodated by an animal sanctuary that has wide, open spaces for these animals.
