Hi all, The news interview I saw reported the people who cared for the kangaroo said that the kangaroo sat beside the man and called for help, not banged on the door. They looked out to see why he was calling out and saw the tree down and the guy pinned down.

There was a wonderful (apparently true) story on our local radio station this morning. An Australian farmer was hit on the head by a falling branch during a storm. He received severe head injuries. The alarm was raised at his farmhouse by a kangaroo that the family had adopted. It was blind in one eye, was competely tame and thought it was a dog! It hammered on the farmhouse door with its front feet until someone came out, and then led them to the injured farmer. He received medical treatment and recovered. So Skippy lives!
