Attack while playing
Father has to rescue daughter (2) from kangaroo
In the Australian state of New South Wales, a father had to rescue his two-year-old daughter from an aggressive kangaroo that had attacked the playing child out of the blue. Footage from a surveillance camera shows the shocking scenes (see video above).
The dangerous incident took place last weekend in a family's garden. The two-year-old daughter was playing alone when several kangaroos suddenly approached. One of the animals jumped on the girl and knocked her over. But the attack did not end there. The wild animal circled its victim and kicked her again.
The girl's father, who had witnessed the whole thing, immediately rushed over and threw an object at the kangaroo. The kangaroo then fled. Since then, the father has been celebrated as a hero on social media.
Mother: "Luckily she was wearing thick clothes"
The girl only suffered minor injuries - bruises and scratches. "Luckily she was wearing thick clothes and her father was nearby," the child's mother told Australian media, expressing extreme relief. According to reports, the family now wants to erect a fence to prevent further attacks.
