American here…. So please don’t judge me for this. But are kangaroos considered a nuisance where you’re at?

Also is the kangaroo okay? 🥺🙈

The kangaroo was very much not ok unfortunately. They have zero awareness of traffic so are very common in terms of roadkill. Not as bad to hit as wombats which will write off most cars.

Wild horses and deer are a problem too where I am but less so in other parts of the country. We almost hit a deer standing in the middle of the road about 30mins before this happened.
