Kangaroo Boxing

Sickening 'Animal Olympics' forces kangaroos to box humans

Quote:

In the fight, the Australian kangaroo appears to reel backwards after receiving a right hook from its garishly attired opponent.

But the 'roo, which was wearing boxing gloves on its front paws, fought back, grappling with the clown who was forced back towards the ropes by its onslaught.

I say we take this one to the UN Security Councel.

Well it is one thing for China to violate human rights but when they start doing it to kangaroos too they have gone too far.

Kangaroo's usually fight by grappling with the fore legs and raking/kicking with their hind legs - which can be fatal for the human...

Part of the cruelty is that the roo has been trained out of fighting in its normal way, for the precise reason bevin described (boxing fans like violence, but disembowlments are a little too much for them, at least so far). So what it boils down to is a kangaroo grappling ineffectually and getting punched in the head with no way to defend itself.
