"Wallaroo — a short, stocky variety of kangaroo found in the wild across
Australia"

Er, Mr. Yahoo try Wallaby.

Does it happen? Yes, mostly through your car windscreen. If it's a full sized
Kangaroo it will likely kill you in the process.

Wallabies and Kangaroos are becoming more and more urbanised so it doesn't
surprise me. Locally I haven't seen any Kangaroos but I see the odd Wallaby
lying dead by the road side.

That's sad because they are very beautiful creatures indeed. Kangaroos are also
cute but dangerous.
