Feb  08, 2016: Roger the muscle-bound kick-boxing kangaroo is back - and he’s even more hench than ever.

The red ’roo has posed for a series of impressive snaps flexing his enormous arms and chest muscles like a pro body-builder.

Roger was just a little chap back in 2006 when he was discovered as an orphan, sitting next to his dead mum by the side of the road.

Now he’s a marsupial megastar , entertaining the hordes who come to see him at The Kangaroo Sanctuary , in Alice Springs in the Northern Territory.

His latest portrait, showing the hunky hopper bent over on his huge hind legs, was shared online by the sanctury.

The caption reads: "After a summer break we reopened this week for our guided sunset tours. Here is Roger enjoying the attention of our visitors!"

This giant creature, named Roger, stands at a massive 2.07 metres (or 6ft 9ins) tall and weighs a whopping 14 stone.

And if that wasn’t enough, the terrifyingly muscular marsupial has the strength and power of a kick-boxer, and isn’t shy about letting people know when he’s not happy.

 In fact, one of Roger’s favourite pastimes involves chasing his dedicated keeper every time he ’invades’ the kangaroo’s enclosure .

Roger, who lives in The Kangaroo Sanctuary in Alice Springs, Australia, also works out every day - with an exercise regime that includes crushing tin bukcets.

Unbelievably, Roger is only nine-years-old. Red kangaroo life expectancy can be as high as 22 years.

But Roger isn’t the only giant kangaroo currently living Down Under.

Earlier this month, another huge marsupial was spotted , this time on Australia’s east coast.

Nicknamed Big Buck, the eastern grey kangaroo is slightly smaller than Roger - but what he ’lacks’ in height, he more than makes up for with his 15 stone frame.


Big Buck has been causing a fair bit of panic with its surprise appearances in playgrounds, walking tracks and at golf club in the town.

And if the massive creature wasn’t distinctive enough, its ominous looking ripped left ear will definitely set it apart from the crowd.
