Popular Wallaby Found After Colorado Police Respond To Report Of ‘Kangaroo’ On The Loose

A very popular wallaby was found roaming around after Colorado police respond to a report of an alleged kangaroo on the loose. It ended up just being Charlie The Wallaby who has quite the following on social media.

If you're an officer in Colorado, you probably never expect to receive a call regarding a kangaroo on the loose. It had to have been a surprising call when reports came in to these Colorado officers with the Doug County Sheriff's Office. It happened in a residential neighbor hood in Highland Ranch. See a video shared on Instagram here.

The video, which was shared by the Doug County Sheriff's Office on Instagram notes that everyone was safe and Charlie did make his way home. One officer even noted that this was going to be the highlight of their year. I can't see anything beating this.

For those wondering, wallabies are basically smaller kangaroos. They're both marsupials commonly found in Australia and are in the same Macropodidae family. However, they differ in size and habitat with kangaroos being larger. You can see Charlie The Wallaby's Instagram here.
