Eastern Grey Kangaroo

Macropus giganteus

Description:

The highest ever recorded speed of any kangaroo was 64 kilometres per hour (40 mph) set by a large female eastern grey kangaroo.[

Habitat:

spotted this mother and baby in a wildlife sanctuary for injured kangaroos. These guys often get hit by cars and are injured. So the sanctuary takes them in and fixes them up before they are released in to the wild again.
