It ’s unmanageable to say why exactly everyone loves elude animal narrative . It ’s probably for the same understanding we likeThe Shawshank Redemption : to witness the emotional arc of a wrongfully incarcerate convict break free and cause all kinds of hassle and pandemonium to those that once watched over it . ( Apologies to all well - mean zookeepers out there , by the way . )
Although it ’ll take a lot to beat the two massive , societal media - savvy capybarasthat eloped together into the wilds of Toronto back in 2016 , the latest increase to this series of tales – a “ scalawag ” kangaroo over in South Carolina – is certainly desirable of inclusion to this tremendously ridiculous arras .
As report by theAssociated Press , this mischievous pouched mammal was spotted along Highway 28 in the American nation last Thursday . greet that kangaroos are not exactly ubiquitous in the Land of the Free , reports came deluge into the local sheriff ’s office , who promptly arrest it .
The report note that , apart from in the end being trap by its owner , “ details about the kangaroo ’s Thursday morning exploits and capture were not issue . ” We ’ve reached out to the kangaroo for comment , but have yet to receive a reply .
As such , we are go to have to simply assume that the escapism and capture were incredibly dramatic , need whirlybird hunting parties , an epic , prolonged staredown between escapee and the authorities , and a last squelch , where someone said something to the kangaroo like “ you ’re out of bounds ” as they whomp him or her .
It ’s not clear how it escaped either , although some suspect it found a weak point in its enclosure or the gate was only left candid . No one has suggest anything more complicated than that yet , and it does n’t appear that a zany heist was afoot either , sadly .
The best part of this particular story , though , is that this is the second time the kangaroo has escaped in three days . Either it ’s a striking escape creative person or the enclosure it ’s keep open in is jolly cheapjack . It ’s deserving noting that it ’s not being kept in a zoo either , but a grouping of “ properly licensed ” unnamed owners are keeping it .
So there you go – you may get a license to keep at least one kangaroo in South Carolina . Every day ’s a school daylight , good ?
Disappointingly , at present , no social medium account claim to be by the kangaroo itself have appear . Fingers cross we get some on-line , radical sass by a Twitter - able ‘ roo in the near future tense .
