Hard-headed approach frees kangaroo with head stuck in watering can – video

Straya. Enough said.

A kangaroo on South Australia’s Eyre peninsula was certainly looking in the right place for a drink but ended up in trouble when it got its head stuck in a watering can.

The two-metre tall male red kangaroo, who was clearly distressed, was found near the Coffin Bay golf course. Onlookers began to look for ways to free it when the marsupial appeared unable to dislodge the can by itself.

They initially tried pull off the can using ropes while holding onto the kangaroo’s tail, but were unsuccessful. They later managed to cut through the galvanised steel watering can, letting the animal bound away unharmed.

I don't know how many times I've told family members to quit partaking outside of the home. This is what happens... EVERY time.

Some folks just never learn.



On a serious note, I am glad he ran into some people who helped him on his way. Awesome

They are lucky the Roo didn't punch a hole in one of them while kicking around - I think it realised after a while that the humans were trying to help it, not hurt it lol.

Nice, thanks. Those guys earned a boat load of good karma....a reply to: Kryties

I knew you would find this thread. LOL

Poor thing! He's lucky he didn't get cut by the sharp metal that was cut. Glad he is free now!

Roos are tougher than they may look, I've personally seen a car half-totalled when it hit one yet the Roo bounced off, flailed a bit on the ground, got up and shook his head then proceeded to merrily hop over the nearest fence and into the sunset.
