I mean it's not every day a Kangaroo would be running about loose in Colorado. Must have been quite a sight. I am.glad that the police captured it.

@Deepizzaguy true, maybe he needs a lot of space

I hope so as well since the kangaroo was likely tired of being inside of a home.

These animals have a lot of fun getting lose and hopping about and then someone comes and spoils all the fun

It seems like that kangaroo doesn't want to stay home.

I guess the kangaroo wanted to leave his home.

I know that it is odd for anyone in Colorado to own a kangaroo as a pet.

It seems as if the owner did nothing more to pen his kangaroo in. I hope the Police talked sternly to them about wasting their time, chasing their escaped kangaroo.

I hope so as well as the police have talked to the owner of the kangaroo to be more careful owning a kangaroo.
