The grey kangaroo cannot run, as this would require its hind legs to move independently of each other. This is impossible, physiologically, for the kangaroo.
Grey kangaroos, like all kangaroos, hop and bound. The top speed of any Grey Kangaroo has been recorded at 64 kilometres per hour, which is equal to around 40 miles per hour. This record was set by a female Eastern Grey Kangaroo.
