Watch out Pete!

http://uk.news.yahoo.com/skynews/...ttacks-street-jogger-3fd0ae9.html

A jogger has been attacked by a kangaroo on the outskirts of Australia's second largest city.

The man suffered a gash on his head and claw scratches to his chest, arms and hands, Metropolitan Ambulance Service spokeswoman Christine Paterson said

He was attacked as he apparently ran between a male and female kangaroo near his home at an outer suburb of Melbourne.

She said the victim, aged in his 50s, fled to a nearby house and telephoned for help while the kangaroo hopped away.

He was then taken to hospital in a stable condition, Ms Paterson continued.

Reports said the animal is believed to have turned aggressive after becoming separated from other kangaroos nearby.

A Royal Melbourne Hospital spokeswoman was not immediately available for comment on the man's condition.

The kangaroo - an Australian icon that is featured in the nation's coat of arms - has powerful hind legs.

Combined with sharp toe claws, the animals can disembowel opponents by kicking

Shocked
Garp

I read an alternative report that it was the male Kangaroo that fled for assisatnce and an Austarlian male was being sought, who was reportedy wearing a Melbourne Victory shirt.
