Kangaroos on the Coast

Woodgate Beach in coastal Queensland is home to about 1,000 people—and a population of eastern grey kangaroos. Drought in the surrounding park land has caused the roos to migrate to the lawns and the beaches of this seaside town.

What is also remarkable is that the townspeople and the kangaroos seem to coexist quite happily.

Kangaroos can be vicious and have been known to attack people, but when fights between roos break out in Woodgate, the local inhabitants know to keep clear.
