From the Land of Wonder another tale of Roo Rage.
Toddler attacked by kangaroo which tried to claw him to death as he played in his back garden
A two-year-old boy playing with his toy wheelbarrow was bowled over by a kangaroo which then pinned him down and tried to claw him to death.
The screaming child's terrified parents ran at the animal and managed to chase it away - but not before it left Zakkiah Galea with severe wounds to his face and body.
His mother Nicole Galea last night told how the aggressive kangaroo left her in fear that her son had received fatal injuries in the attack on the family's ten-acre property at Port Macquarie, in northern New South Wales.
Well he seems to be getting better, but it must have been a nasty few minutes for the youngster. Still he will have learnt the important lesson that animals are not our friends.
However one confused commentator seems not to have read the story properly
One can only hope that it is a spoof for poops and giggles, however given the general standard of commenting in The Daily Fail it probably isn’t.
And once again it gives me a chance to post a picture of me almost being KILLED TO DEATH by a marauding marsupial ( Note the clever distraction technique, while the stealth duck goes in for the lower extremities)
Sorry - too tired to spell right first time.
ReplyDeleteI shouldn't make a habit of reading Daily Mail comments; it does tend to diminish one's opinion of one's fellow man, besides being bad for the blood pressure and digestion.
PS. Always good to see another picture of you narrowly avoiding a hideous fate at the paws/claws/hooves of some member of the animal kingdom; shouldn't they have their own tag?
Pffft! Probably thinks Port Macquarie is a misspelling of Portmeirion. Idiot.
ReplyDeleteThat's unusual - I've had one almost punch my lights out but never holding me down and clawing me to death. Must have been a bad child.
