Roger (kangaroo)

Roger (c. 2006–2018) was an Australian red kangaroo best known for his muscular physique.

[2] Barns started the Kangaroo Sanctuary[3] on 188 acres (76 ha) in Alice Springs to house and protect Roger and other roos, including Roger's mates.

[6] Roger first came to fame in 2015 in a video that went viral, showing a bucket he was said to have crushed.

Upon hearing of Roger's death, Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia said "He always brought a smile to my face.

Such a proud strong boy",[11] and Tourism Australia called him a "true icon".
