KANGAROOS
Did
you know that baby kangaroos (joeys) are born when they are not fully
grown?
When they are first born they are about the size of a bean. They are
hairless
and blind! They don’t go into the mothers pouch right away. They have to
slowly
inch their way up the mothers belly and into the pouch. You may be
asking, “How
can they do this? They’re blind!” In fact they are born with a natural
instinct! The baby joeys stay in the pouch for about eight months (it
mostly
depends on the species!) Sometimes another baby kangaroo would be in the
pouch
at the same time. The mother is able to produce enough milk for both of
them! After all that did you know that a kangaroo can grow up to be
around eight feet tall? In conclusion I think kangaroos are very
fascinating animals. Who new that when they were first born they were
only the size of a bean!
