本文中譯:
目前世界上有五十多種不同的袋鼠。體型最小的只有五公分高,最大的卻超過兩公尺。袋鼠不會走也不會跑,牠們只會用跳的。觀賞袋鼠活動的最佳時間是晚間或一大清早。牠們白天的時間都在樹蔭下打盹兒。

小袋鼠剛出生的時候大約只有2.5公分長,還得把自己拖到母袋鼠的腹袋�堙C牠們順著母袋鼠體毛的紋路找到自己的家,然後待在母袋鼠的腹袋�堣@直到八個月大。之後,便永遠離開腹袋了。有時候小袋鼠並不熱衷於在廣闊的世界中闖蕩。例如,有人就曾發現一隻五十磅重的袋鼠仍生活在母親的腹袋中。

你可曾想過為什麼這種動物稱為 "Kangaroo" 呢?根據一則故事,話說庫克船長在澳洲登陸時聽到土著們稱這些令人驚奇的動物為 "Kangooroo",他就把這個名稱寫成"Kangaroo" 。這就是這種動物得名的由來。
