that kangaroo is that friendly?

they are semi tame native kangaroos that hang around the camping grounds. They are used to being handled. you can pat them and scratch them where they cant reach and they like it. They are fairly gentle creatures. When they get heaps older the big male bucks can be more of a worry but not a big worry they wont bother with you and remain gentle unless you do something mean to them.
They especially like food handouts and playing with kids... I think the kids like the kangaroos more than the kangaroos like the kids. there were lots of possums there too at night. I like my wildlife not in cages. but I love wildlife,the animals make the holidays fun.

I love them they are so cute and friendly.

the one on the video is 9 my other is 7

possums are usually friendly if you give them food. they steal your food and run around on the roof of the tent at night trying to eat blossoms off the tree above the tent.
