Characteristics of Life Activity---Kangaroo Kangaroos are the multicellular animals and they are complex one because they are mammals. As we all know they are the only large animals to use hopping as a means of locomotion and they also hop really fast. The comfortable hopping speed for red kangaroo is about 20–25 km/h (13–16 mph)‚ but speeds of up to 70 km/h (44 mph) can be attained‚ over short distances‚ while it can sustain a speed of 40 km/h (25 mph) for nearly. They are also adept swimmers
