Kangaroo Free Screensaver. Photos slideshow. Kangaroo screensaver. This free screensaver contains many pictures of Kangaroo. A kangaroo is a marsupial from the family Macropodidae (macropods, meaning large foot ). In common use the term is used to describe the largest species from this family, the Red Kangaroo, the Antilopine Kangaroo, and the Eastern and Western Grey Kangaroo of the Macropus genus. The family also includes many smaller species which include the wallabies, tree-kangaroos, wallaroos, pademelons and the Quokka, some 63 living species in all. Kangaroos are endemic to the continent of Australia, while the smaller macropods are found in Australia and New Guinea. In general, larger kangaroos have adapted much better to changes wrought to the Australian landscape by humans and though many of their smaller cousins are endangered, they are plentiful. They are not farmed to any extent, but wild kangaroos are shot for meat, over which there is controversy. The kangaroo is an Australian icon: it is featured on the Australian coat of arms, on some of its currency, and is used by many Australian organisations, including Qantas. A common legend about the kangaroo s English name is that it came from the Aboriginal words for I don t understand you. According to this legend, Captain James Cook and naturalist Sir Joseph Banks were exploring Australia when they happened upon the animal. They asked a nearby local what the creatures were called. The local responded Kangaroo , meaning I don t understand you , which Cook took to be the name of the creature. This screensaver is free, and contains no spyware or virus.
