袋鼠来自哪里英文

where do Kangaroos come from Australia?

The Kangaroo is a common marsupial from the islands of Australia and New Guinea.There are 47 species of "roos." Kangaroos can hop up to 40 miles per hour (74 kph) and go over 30 feet (9 m) in one hop.These shy animals live about 6 years in the wild and up to 20 in captivity.Most roos are nocturnal (active at night).Many roos are in danger of extinction,but they are also considered pests due to the way they damage crops.An adult male is called a buck,boomer or jack; an adult female is called a doe,flyer,roo,or jill.A baby is called a joey.A group of roos is called a mob.Anatomy:Roos and wallabies range in size from 2 pounds (the Rock Wallaby) up to 6 ft and 300 pounds (the Red Kangaroo).The soft,woolly fur can be blue,grey,red,black,yellow or brown,depending on the species.Females have a pouch in which the young live and drink milk.

Kangaroos have large,powerful hind legs,large feet adapted for leaping,a long muscular tail for balance,and a small head.Like most marsupials,female kangaroos have a pouch called a marsupium in which joeys complete postnatal development.

Larger kangaroos have adapted much better than smaller macropods to land clearing for pastoral agriculture and habitat changes brought to the Australian landscape by humans.Many of the smaller species are rare and endangered；

whilst the larger kangaroos are relatively plentiful.The kangaroo is an unofficial symbol of Australia and appears as an emblem on the Australian coat of arms and on some of its currency and is used by some of Australia's well known organisations；

including Qantas and the Royal Australian Air Force.The kangaroo is important to both Australian culture and the national image,and consequently there are numerous popular culture references.

生活习性：

袋鼠是食草动物，吃多种植物，有的还吃真菌类。它们大多在夜间活动，但也有些在清晨或傍晚活动。袋鼠以矮小润绿离地面近的小草为生,将长草与干草留给其它动物。个别种类的袋鼠也吃树叶或小树牙。

袋鼠家族中“种族歧视”十分严重；它们对外族成员进入家族不能容忍，甚至本家族成员在长期外出后再回来也是不受欢迎的。家族即使接受新成员，也要教训一番，直到新成员学会许多“规矩”后，才能和家族融为一体。

澳大利亚第十题的B

Where is koala feom?

袋鼠，英文名为Kangaroo，是澳洲的国宝之一。袋鼠属于有袋类动物，为动物界，脊索动物门，哺乳纲，有袋亚纲，双门齿目，袋鼠亚目，袋鼠科的袋鼠属。有袋类动物其实是发育不完全的动物，每胎新生的袋鼠宝宝都属于早产儿。出生后的有袋类动物需要在妈妈的育儿袋中继续生长发育，以获得成熟。有袋类动物主要分布于澳洲及附近岛屿（袋鼠，考拉等），南美洲（负鼠等）以及中美洲和北美洲，其他地区也有有袋类动物的存在，只不过现在已经不复存在了，人们仅能找到相关的化石纪录，比如袋狮、双门齿兽，剑齿有袋兽等。袋鼠的英文名kangaroo的来源也很有意思，曾有传说表示，这一名字是源于澳洲原住民辜古依密舍族（Guugu Yimidhirr）语言中的“gangurru”。来自英国的探险家库克船长（Captain James Cook）在1768年－1771年进行了第一次航海旅行，1770年6月份的时候在澳洲大堡礁触礁，于是库克船长便来到了努力河岸边修理船舰。▲库克船长之间，船上的植物家约瑟夫·班克斯意外地发现了袋鼠这一动物，便去询问当地人，由于原住民听不懂英文，遂回复不知道，即gangurru。班克斯就误以为，这种动物叫做“gangurru”。这一有趣的传说在20世纪70年代的时候遭到了辟谣，经过语言学家的研究表示，在辜古依密舍族中，“gangurru”就是袋鼠的称呼，而并非“不知道”。▲澳航以袋鼠为标志的飞机作为国宝，袋鼠很受重视，在国徽上，澳洲一些货币上，我们都可以看到它们的身影。此外，澳洲的国家航空公司澳航（Qantas）也一直以袋鼠图案作为标志。澳洲军队的车辆，舰船在海外执行任务的时候，大多也会涂装袋鼠标志。希望回答对您有所帮助 :-D

袋鼠名字来源：

据传说，“Kangaroo”是袋鼠的英文名，源自于澳洲原住民Guugu Yimidhirr :“gangurru”，意思是指“不知道”。而这一切其实只是一场误会，约瑟夫·班克斯的第一次航海旅行时，他抵达努力河（即现时库克镇港口）岸边。

在靠岸修理船舰的七个礼拜其间，他意外地发现到一种古灵精怪的动物，便去询问当地澳洲土著，但是由于语言不通将“不知道”当作“袋鼠”的英文名称，就一直使用。但事实上，经语言学家John B. Haviland研究，当地称呼袋鼠即为“ganguro”，其意义并非“不知道”。

袋鼠不是国宝。熊猫可以算得上是代表中国的唯一动物界国宝，到哪里都给捧着。但袋鼠就没有这么好运了！毕竟，在澳洲全部特有野生动物里面，若单从生活待遇，和经常出国成为“友好大使”来讲，考拉明显更宝贝。若从稀有性来讲，鸭嘴兽似乎更受到重视。而在澳洲国徽上的袋鼠和鸸鹋，基本是难兄难弟，都属于可食用和制作成各类产品的“可怜儿”，特别是到了袋鼠数量泛滥的时候，农民恨不得大杀四方。但是，这并不能抹杀掉袋鼠是澳大利亚最具代表性的象征——不断前进，永不退缩，当之无愧的，精神上的“国宝”。澳洲人对于袋鼠的感情始终是复杂的，爱恨交织，实实在在。
