Are the kangaroo's legs short or long?
Both. Kangaroos have long hind legs and short front legs.Their hind legs have large, strong tendons which act as "springs". The springing motion requires less energy than running does, so kangaroos are able to bound higher and for longer distances than other mammals with the standard four legs can run. They also have elongated hind feet for bounding. Their front legs are short as they use them to grasp branches to bring young leaves and shoots closer to their mouths for feeding. Their short front legs are also crucial for when kangaroos "walk". Kangaroos walk by pulling themselves along by their short front legs, and using their tail to help push them along. Their long, strong hind legs are useless for walking, as they cannot move independently of each other.
How are the front legs different from the hind legs?
The fore limbs are at the front of the frog and the hind limbs are at the back.
