70 km/h. 50% muscle. And a kick you don't want to experience.
Kangaroos may look like harmless grass-eaters, but their biology tells a very different story. With enormous leg muscles, devastating kicks, speeds approaching 70 km/h, and a fighting style that involves boxing, grappling, and wrestling, they're remarkably powerful animals. Their unusual bodies also make hopping more energy-efficient as they pick up speed, while their muscular builds play a major role in survival, competition, and even attracting mates.
