Talk:Kangaroo

Living
The article says that Kangaroos are a "species of animal", which implies that they're alive... For some reason, I've never really thought that they are. They always have that blank look on their faces, and the manual calls them "vehicles" (which isn't a typical way to think of an animal; we're not about to put Yoshi in the vehicles category). --YellowYoshi398 21:03, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Agh, this would be easier to debate if we had a pic. 21:06, 20 March 2007 (EDT)


 * Here ya go. --YellowYoshi398 21:16, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Wow, nice job finding the pic. It think its more of a species than a vehicle. 21:23, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Yup. I was going to scan the pic. THanks.

Character or Species
Is this a character or species? I really don't know. Anyone have evidence from a manual or an official guide, or even in-game text? -- Son of Suns

I'm not sure. They appear in several levels, but it's hard to tell whether they're the same one or different.----

Well, from what I can remember from some text in the game, it seemed to imply that its a character. The manual doesn't really offer more information, it pretty much says "hop on the kangaroo, she'll bring you to new heights". -- Sir Grodus


 * Is that an exact quote? We need something official. -- Son of Suns

Just about, maybe not word for word in that order.----

Here it is exactly, "Control both the kangaroo and stilts by hopping on them and then using +. Hop off the kangaroo when it reaches a certain point, and jump off the stilts at any time". Its listed under vehicles and the pairing with the stilts doesn't help matters. -- Sir Grodus

That doesn't help much.... -- Son of Suns

So does that mean it should be under vehicles too?----

He only appears in two levels. The talk box says "There she is!" I suggest Character 18:00, 27 March 2007 (EDT)

Flying Kangaroo
The article doesn't mention about the Kangaroo's ability to float in the air for a while in Yoshis's Island. Alpheta 20:54, 16 September 2009 (EDT)
