Australia’s most famous animal resident is part of the family group with a scientific name that translates to “big-foot.” That describes these champion jumpers to a T. Western gray kangaroos can bound up to 30 feet, and can reach speed up to 30 miles per hour! Their long, thick tails help them balance as they go.
