Kangaroo on the Loose in Denmark




Police seek public help for kangaroo afoot in Denmark

Oct 30 12:14 PM US/Eastern

Danish police appealed for public help Tuesday to track down a kangaroo that escaped from its owner's home in Copenhagen.

Two of the fleet-footed native Australian marsupials escaped from their owner's residence in the Copenhagen neighbourhood of Amager on Monday.

One found its own way home on Tuesday but the second remains on the loose, police said.

"Passersby saw it on Tuesday afternoon and its owner, Jan Passer, is on his way to try to persuade it to return home," a police officer told AFP.

"He is very nice, according to his owner, and easy to cajole with just a carrot," he added.
