  Bullshit, I’ve seen the video of the one drowning a dude’s dog and I’ve read about them tearing people’s innards out with their claws.

    I’m Australian, Ive literally encountered them domesticated and in the wild hundreds of times in my life.

    But if an American has seen a video I must be wrong.

        Dogs can also rip out throats, but the actual occurrences are rare. I think that’s what they’re saying. Deer definitely can do it too, which you said in another post is that your understanding is that Kangaroos are more violent. Which, are they? Or is that just your impression of a foreign animal you’ve only heard newsworthy stuff about as opposed to animals you regularly encounter in your home country?

      My understanding is that kangaroos are much more unpredictable and prone to random violence towards humans than deer. Also, only half of the deer even have antlers, all kangaroos will fuck you up with their claws.
