Answer the question

Dear student,

Here is the answer:

A kangaroo injured Australian politician Shane Rattenbury in the Australian capital, Canberra, on Thursday. Mr. Rattenbury took a morning jog in the Canberra suburb of Ainslie when the kangaroo surprised him, and in the ensuing confrontation Mr. Rattenbury scratched several times on the leg. 
By Mr Rattenbury's account, the kangaroo was an eastern grey kangaroo, which is a common species in Australia. Neither the kangaroo nor Mr. Rattenbury saw each other until they were too close and they both were surprised by each other. The kangaroo which was behind a hedge, then started hopping around and Rattenbury ducked for cover. The kangaroo pounced on him while he was still on the ground. He was left lyingin the street while another pedestrian went to his assistance. He drove home and visited a hospital, after receiving a tetanus shot. He attended parliament later that day, where his colleagues made kangaroo jokes about him.
There are many kangaroos living in wildlife reserves around the Australian capital, which often enter suburban areas. The attack follows previous incidents in 2009 when a kangaroo smashed inside a Canberra home, and in 2010 when a kangaroo knocked a jogger unconscious in nearby Mount Ainslie. Kangaroo management in Canberra was the subject of a television documentary in 2011 called Kangaroo Mob. 

Regards
