What does kangaroo taste like?

Answer 1

Contrary to popular opinion, koalas do not smell like eucalyptus. Only young males are likely to smell very slightly of eucalyptus. Mature males have a strong musky smell, particularly during mating season.

The Koala Foundation website reports that, if anything, koalas often smell rather strongly of urine.

Answer 2

Kangaroos vary in temperament, from bold to timid. They are generally wary of humans, preferring to avoid any confrontation.

There are over 60 species of kangaroo, from the largest, the Red kangaroo, through many varieties of wallabies, and down to the smallest member of the kangaroo family, the musky-rat kangaroo. Because there are so many varieties, their colour varies from reddish-brown to grey, some having darker extremities (feet, nose, tail), such as the wallaroo.

Kangaroos are known for their powerful legs, and all members of the kangaroo family share this characteristic of strong hind legs and short forelegs. The forelegs have no thumb. The female kangaroo has a pouch for the joey (baby). Kangaroos are well known for their jumping capabilities and use their long, powerful, muscular tails to help balance.
