No for real though, when I was around 6,7 or either 8, I was out in my front yard playing. My aunt and uncle were in town and my folks were having a barbecue for them, well it was gettign late, and hte sun was going down. I remember distincly hearing my mother call us in for dinner, everyone went in, and I was the last to get in the door. I happened to hear our dog abrking its head off and I looked in the backyard as my sister went in ahead of me, lo and behold was a brown kangaroo!!
Sounds like nothing, you bet, but the only problem is I live in the U.S, in North Carolina to be exact! And and about a good 50 miles from the nearest zoo! And even then, I don't think they had kangaroos there. This took place in the early 80's.
But yeah, in my periheal vision, I saw my dog running aorund and barkling nervously, ut just above his head I saw a brown kangaroo! It looked like the one on Kangaroo Jack, standing on its legs in all? Could this have been a displaced/phantom animal siting?!!

that's the thing. There never was any reports of an escaped kangaroo, anywhere! i used to watch the news with my folks and I don't recaall them saying anything about an escaped kangaroo!
I was too little to know about phantom animal sitings, and displaced animal sitings that they talk about in the paranormal world. Of course too, noone believed me when I told them I saw a kangaroo either.
i wasn't scared, just curious, and I went on in the house and forgot about it!

It's possible- people keep exotic pets illegally and then they "escape" when they get too big to handle or too hard to feed. We have a serval in the zoo I work at that people kept as a pet- and fed it chicken (instead of red meat) talk about nutritional problems. There was also a jaguar lose in upper michigan a few years back (most likely one that "escaped"), one of my professors worked on the case to try to catch it. I believe it eventually died from the cold.

possible as there were many people who saw a Kangaroo in the
Mid - West area in a farmers driveway just standing there as if waiting for a ride or waiting to cross the road. later it was reported it had escaped from a zoo over 75 miles away.

Could it have been a wallaby? They live wild in parts of England after escaping from a zoo. As you where young it might have seemed the size of a kangaroo.

Certainly, strange and quite interesting, but difficult to comment accurately.
