If you are a women in Australia you are more likely to be killed by your husband than any of the wildlife.

You may be an excellent candidate for kanga exposure and immersion therapy to help you work through this irrational phobia and to cultivate your own inner kangaroo.
There hasn’t been a kangaroo fatality in 86 years prior to last year. In contrast, Here are the deadliest wild animals in North America – and states with the most fatal attacks
* Brown bear, 70.
* Snake, 57.
* Shark, 57.
* Black bear, 54.
* Alligator, 33.
* Cougar, 16.
* Polar bear, 10.
* Wolf, 2.
Texas does everything bigger including fatal animal attacks, 520 animal-related deaths, from 1999-2019. Others are
* Texas, 520
* California, 299
* Florida, 247
* North Carolina, 180
* Tennessee, 170
Does this mean you should cancel glamping trips within the US? Of course not! - just work on your inner Skippy and staring down the jaws of American predators.
Not to mention all the human creatures with guns too

A kangaroo kept getting out of his enclosure at the zoo at night. Knowing it could hop really high, the zoo officials put up a 10-foot fence.
However, they were amazed to find the kangaroo was out again the next morning roaming around the zoo. So, they put up a 20-foot fence instead. Again, the next morning, they were amazed to find the kangaroo had still gotten out. Exasperated, they put up a 40-foot fence.
As the animals in the zoo watched all this unfold, a camel in the next enclosure asked the kangaroo, “How high do you think they’ll go?”
The kangaroo replied, “About a 1,000 feet, unless somebody starts locking the gate at night!”

You must not know about me. I will never glamp. I view nature as absolutely red in tooth and claw. I’m afraid of horses. But the kangaroo in that video looked like something from the island of Dr. Moreau, half gym rat/half marsupial.

Oh drats I thought we were internet besties and could face down grizzlies and cougars together!

Does this mean Australia finally has an apex predator apart from humans? Dingoes don’t quite make the cut …

Me too. I watched it over and over. It was like the kangaroo was in a demonic trance, and the Blair Witch style cinematography really drove home the mood.

No disagreement but you know what local beastie terrifies me? Gators. Say what you will about FL but everyone living there has nerves of steel imo.
I've been a few feet away from a enormous gator and I'd still be more afraid of a hopping, boxing, punching kangaroo. 🦘 They're terrifying.
Have you considered medication or therapy for this irrational,phobia?
Well I guess this entire thread went right over your head.
That just makes me sad for you.

I guess it went right over your head that it was tongue in cheek also - poking fun of DCUM answer to everything - and followed up by kanga immersion therapy ….
