It's all in the arm muscles

When a large male kangaroo stands tall and proud looking at me and warning me off, I am always in awe. Female kangaroos are impressed too apparently but for quite specific reasons. According to researchers at Murdoch University, the bigger the size of a male kangaroo's forearms, the greater the attraction to female kangaroos. For more detail on the study click here.

And check out this handsome male in our garden recently. Nice forearms.....
