Apparently the first English speaking people asked the Aboriginals what the kangaroo was called.
They answered kangaroo but I heard that that meant what are you on about.
Is this true? has anyone else heard of this? REPLY | PRINT | EDIT Re: KangarooREPLY POSTED BY : Mick on 02 June 2008 at 11:20:46 I've heard this story as well. Think a tour guide mentioned this at Currumbin Wildlife Park, Gold Coast. REPLY | PRINT | EDIT |
