I mean who else would in their right mind go and find something that's incredibly fast, incredibly venomous,

and will probably win if you don't get it right.

We have a baseball story, not Bazball, a

baseball story, a success. But before Jeremy sends me a still photo from a video

of two kangaroo's boxing. I thought this was a cartoon setup, but from the video and from the still shot from the video these two kangaroos are in the headlights of a

truck that was driving home one night a father and son and they heard they were

blocking the road boxing away.

Jeremy, have you ever seen boxing by kangaroos and do they do this out of sport?

Is it anger? Are they fighting like the pythons? What makes them box like this?

I can say, John, I have actually seen this from my own eyes as well and I can tell you that it's part of all of that. Kangaroos naturally are competitive.

So if there's a large male kangaroo that's trying to dominate another kangaroo's territory, for example, they will stand up, they will literally make themselves as tall as they can and some of these gray

Kangaroos and like the ones in the video there they can be six foot tall so these are huge huge

piece and they will box on and when I say box they

actually use their fists they lean back on their tails they'll kick their legs

out and they do devastatingly lands and boys on the other animal really, really well.

And they box just like any other boxer.

But also, and I've been told this by conservationists,

sometimes the same male kangaroos in the same pack so the friendly kangaroos begin their own
