In October of this year, a video emerged online, capturing a kangaroo's attempt to drown a dog in a river in Australia. However, this incident is not an isolated occurrence, as it turns out that marsupials have employed this peculiar tactic before. Mick Moloney, while strolling along the banks of the Murray River in northwestern Victoria, Australia, suddenly realized that his loyal companion, Hutchy, was nowhere to be found. His gaze shifted towards the water, where he witnessed a kangaroo standing waist-deep, with its arms submerged. To his astonishment, Hutchy emerged from the water gasping for air, expelling water from his mouth, and howling in distress. Moloney recounted this harrowing experience to the Australian broadcaster 7News.
Without hesitation, Moloney waded through the river to rescue his dog, who was ensnared by the kangaroo. A viral video captured the moment when Moloney took a swing at the offender. In retaliation, the kangaroo delivered a punch.

There’s a vid on YouTube where a buck roo has a large dog in a headlock.
Who walks around where there are murderous, dog killing kangaroos what not have his Smith and Wesson 686 on his hip? I’d have aereated the kangaroo’s skull in zero seconds flat for touching my dog
Oh dear! I have to admit that I’ve never thought about this issue.
Because kangaroos are inherently mean as hell???
Roos are dangerous. I would have shot it dead.
Glad I don’t live in Australia.
From what I understand, every animal in Australia wants to kill you. I’d be armed everywhere I went if I lived there. Oh wait! Is that allowed? Is firearm ownership in Australia as restricted as some say?
Australia, gun laws are different there. especially for handguns. One of many reasons I did not pursue a relationship with a nice young lady from Melbourne. The spiders were the top reason.
The worst part is how Australians just rolled over and accepted having their freedoms taken away. At least the Irish are putting a bit of a fuss. Even the French have more guts.
Roos are boxers with claws, and yes they will drown your dogs.
Had a racoon try to drown a dog once.Racoon assumed room temperature.
Yes Australia.
The country where every living thing wants to kill you and the government wants you defenseless.
It’s worse than that, all the animals, terrestrial and aquatic, and almost all the flora, too
This is good to know in case I see a wild Kangaroo while walking my dog in Atlanta.
When this worldwide Milgram Experiment (aka, "Covid") is over, the shrinks are almost certain to look at the Commonwealth Countries of Australia, New Zealand and Canada to try to determine how so many of their citizens could become so servile.
I have seen both red kangaroos and dingoes up close, in the wild.
Both species strike me as being congenitally psychotic.
I’d rather live in Australia
Ran into a bear once, we both hauled ass(in separate directions).
