Huge Balls and a Double Ended Penis!!!!!

Look at the size of these bollocks!
Here is a little trivia for you nature lovers out there.
I learned before coming to Oz that kangaroos have a bifurcated johnny, which means they have two tips on their penis. Many wallabies also have a bifurcated penis, but interestingly (and I must appologise to my friend AJ with whom I had a heated debate for this), neither of the two largest species of kangaroos have this unusual feature. The males of both Grey and Red kangaroos have only one tip on their penis.
The ladies roos have three vaginas, two of which (paired lateral vaginae) lead sperm to the wombs, between them is a midline pseudovaginal canal for giving birth! So, it's one for business two for pleasure! In most marsupials, the psuedovaginal canal opens and closes with each birth. The pouch is often called the "second womb" because most of the joey's development occurs there.

The kangaroo is always pregnant, with one roo gestating as another is in the pouch.The mother can put off the gestation of the growing feotus until she has weened her first joey.


Absolutely incredible stuff. And after getting a snapshot of a roo's balls, it's hardly surprising that they do so well and breed out of control.
The Kangaroo population in Australia has been the one native species to flourish under the settlers occupation, with improved irrigation and waterholes providing the food and water they need to prosper. That and the fact that they are pretty hard to catch.
