Woman with baby kangaroo asked to leave McDonald's following complaint

A police officer from Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, was surprised when somebody called to complain about a kangaroo that a woman had taken to a McDonald's.

Officer Rich Dahl said the baby kangaroo was wrapped in a blanket, and was sitting in an infant car seat.



The woman told Dahl she needed the animal to handle emotional distress, and she produced a letter from a doctor to that effect.

The officer said the woman agreed to leave, although she was upset about it at first. Dahl said he's not sure if a kangaroo would legally qualify as a service animal to help the disabled under the law, but he's glad he didn't have to find out.

As an Australian, I weep to see one of my lovely native animals subjected to this disgusting American obsession with "owning" exotic wild animals - and then subjecting them to psychotic anthropomorphic, degrading lives doing things like dressing them in clothes or carting them to McDonald's in a child's car seat. I bet you anything she doesn't feed it properly! Little guy should be wild and free. So selfish. I'm disgusted.
