From the sound of the spokesperson's quote, they didn't really have much of a beef with Bossy...

when i was living in Dubbo (in Australias NSW country farming area) i was sittin in my office and a kangaroo hopped past my desk! it went down into the back tea room and just stood in the corner. It stayed for quite a time and even started to mess up some of our filing that was stacked there. All my fellow co-workers were too scared to go and shoo it out so we had to call a WIRES volunteer to capture it, and take it back out of the town.

I'm quite fond of kangaroos and have found out they can be quite nasty bastards ...

they are cute, and the joes are darlings..
but the big red ones are V scary, they box and wrestle if they feel threatened and can stand on their tails while they pumble you with their gigantic feet. the one in our office was a red kangaroo, about 4.5 feet tall. it wouldnt have been that bad had my boss not taken a happy snap of the poor darling and made it go mental with the flash

She raised it from a calf, and it followed her everywhere... except inside buildings. :-)

Bad news was that her step-dad had it slaughtered, and she developed a case of Bell's Palsy for a while after that.

She still likes cows. We even have a set of cow dishes that are kinda cute.
