Humans vs Kangaroo - Who Wins?
Kangaroos are native to Australia and New Guinea. Australia is home to around 50 million kangaroos, which is more than double the population of Australia, which has around 25 million people. Kangaroos have powerful hind legs, a long, strong tail, and small front legs. Thanks to their large feet, kangaroos can jump up to 9 meters in a single jump and can reach speeds of up to 30 kilometers per hour. Kangaroos are large and strong animals, being able to exceed two meters in height when they stand upright and can also exceed 80 kg. Male kangaroos, fighting each other for the right to mate with a potential female, can stand on their tails and kick their enemy with their powerful legs. This way of fighting caught the attention of many people in the 19th century, when boxing kangaroos appeared. The first reports of kangaroo boxing date back to the early 1890s, with a kangaroo named Jack being forced to wear a pair of boxing gloves and spar with a man known as Professor Lindermann at the Waxworks in Melbourne, Australia. The stunt soon became a regular event at traveling shows across the country and it wasn't long before it gained popularity in the United States. Kangaroo boxing soon became a popular form of entertainment in circuses and shows in both the United States and Europe. Clowns and even professional boxers sparred with the kangaroos one-on-one, sometimes throwing real punches that actually landed. But even with success the sport gradually lost its popularity, but it lasted long enough to find its way into pop culture, such as 1978's Matilda - a film entirely about kangaroo boxing.
