Where in the world did you meet a roo indoors?

This was at FurCon '07.

Yep... I was pretty surprised when they brought him out. :3

Awwwwwwwwwwwwe! *I* want a roo smooch!

Lucky!! Three months with roos and I never got smooched! :-P

Three months with 'roos?

To be more precise, 3 months Down Under, and 20 to 30 whole days with roos.

Nice. I love the photos in particular. What's the story behind these?

1) Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, Brisbane, Queensland. Roos are usually sleepy in the afternoon, especially when it's hot. I'm resting against a sleeping Eastern Grey roo.

2) Maru Koala and Fauna Park located on the Bass Highway between Melbourne and Phillip Island. This gluttonous fellow is a Kangaroo Island roo that we called "Jitters" because he shakes non-stop. He felt like a battery-operated toy that shakes, a-la Tickle-me Elmo!

3) Wildlife Wonderland, Melbourne, located on the Bass Highway, just 10 minutes away from the Phillip Island. This place was the best in terms of hugging roos and lifting them up! Here, I'm hugging an Eastern Grey roo. It's very difficult to hug a roo, they usually don't like it.

4) Wildlife Wonderland. Mobbed by a mob of Eastern Greys! One of them is snooping into my bag! I got scratched on an arm by a hungry female. The marks took a month to heal. Still totally worth it.

5) Some park in Sydney (not Taronga zoo). All the roos were too shy to touch, except this poor male Eastern Grey with a missing paw. My friends called him Gimpy.

Well, it sounds like you had quite a time. Thanks for all the background info... it makes the pix that much more fun. :3

You're welcome. Hooray for roos!
