I read that. Its BS.
Correct title is Humans have more in common with Mice than Kangaroos.

Humans and kangaroos last shared an ancestor 150 million years ago, the researchers found, while mice and humans diverged from one another 70 million years ago.

So they're one of the farthest mammals, but that is "closely related".

We'll keep Australia,
wouldn't want to hurt no kangaroo.
We'll build an all-American amusement park there.
They got surfin' too.

We thought they'd be completely scrambled, but they're not. There is great chunks of the human genome which is sitting right there in the kangaroo genome,' she added.

Sounds like modular design, to me.

The Scars of Evolution:
What Our Bodies Tell Us
About Human Origins

by Elaine Morgan
"The most remarkable aspect of Todaro's discovery emerged when he examined Homo Sapiens for the 'baboon marker'. It was not there... Todaro drew one firm conclusion. 'The ancestors of man did not develop in a geographical area where they would have been in contact with the baboon. I would argue that the data we are presenting imply a non-African origin of man millions of years ago.'"

“Kangaroos are hugely informative about what we were like 150 million years ago,’ Graves said. “

Finally something useful ;-)

That lends a whole new erotic dimension to the meaning of the lyrics in “Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport.”
