An Australian mom has told of being "stalked" by a rogue kangaroo for two days before it savaged her, leaving her with a 12-inch scar.

Kirrily McWilliams was first confronted by the growling female eastern gray kangaroo in the backyard of her property south of Port Macquarie, in New South Wales -- and the next day it got through her fence and attacked her dog, a 143-pound mastiff.

Despite worried calls to National Parks and Wildlife Services for help, McWilliams was told to ignore the animal and it would go away, The (Sydney) Daily Telegraph reported.

That afternoon she was walking down the driveway to pick her daughter up from the school bus when she saw the mad marsupial heading towards her at high speed. With nowhere to hide she dropped to the ground and curled up in a ball.

"If you stand and confront them they can easily tear you apart because that's what they do to each other," McWilliams said.

All I know is if a Kangaroo was stalking me for 2 days by the end of the 2nd day we would be having Kangaroo burgers for dinner.

I wonder if the Roo is a Hatfield or a McCoy?
Had a Costneresque - Devil Anse Hatfield - sort of style to his hop, from what I hear. But my information may be unreliable. No direct liquor store clerk insider info ... nothing that strong. No link. So, suspect opinionating at best.

First, the Kangaroo was probably on Bath Salts, so it's meat would be tainted.

Secondly, you'd "roo" the decision to eat meat bc it kills the environment! ;) lol

I thought this thread was going to be about a poster on this site.

A Kangaroo stalked a human for two days before it sprung. This thing would jump you while you had one pant leg on and were half asleep in the morning. :laugh2:

seems wierd to me that they didn't do anything after she reported it attacked her dog. Is it normal in Australia to ignore aggresive wild animals? Does rabies not exist over there?

I doubt they just ignore it, but they don't have rabies.

Right between the eyes sucker, right between the eyes.



I remember an actor(I think it was David Hasselhoff) mentioned on the Tonight Show that he was shown a group of Kangaroo's once and a male mounted him and that they had to pry the thing of him.

Well, the story claims they didn't do anything and just told her to ignore it. I didn't mean that it had rabies or even could have, I have no clue. I just meant it seems like with stuff like rabies existing, a report of a wild animal that has attacked someone's dog would be met with some type of response, other that telling the pet owner to ignore the wild animal and it will go away.
