Police officers in Durango Colorado on Monday May 19 answered an emergency call about a kangaroo that gained fame in Durango on October 2024 by running away from home and was captured by the police back then and returned to its owner.
The same kangaroo was caught by the police in Durango on Monday in the backyard of a resident's home when the kangaroo was captured by the police again

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

@Deepizzaguy true, maybe he needs a lot of space

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.

I read where kangaroos are more dangerous than you think. If I remember the article I read correctly, some guy came across one and the kangaroo started slapping him around. I'm not sure how badly injured the guy was.

Even though my knowledge of kangaroos come from cartoons, I have read stories of kangaroos beating up humans in fights.

I guess the kangaroo wanted to leave his home.

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.

This kangaroo does NOT like being in captivity.

That is what I am thinking that kangaroos like their freedom and not be inside a farm or home.
