On Monday, a kangaroo escaped from its enclosure at the Edling reservoir near Völkermarkt in Carinthia.

Two police officers made their way to the spot where the animal was last seen and started the chase - together with firefighters, the now identified animal owner, and additional voluntary supporters, until they were finally able to catch the kangaroo named Mirko.

Escaped Kangaroo Evaded Helpers with Skilful Jumps

"Several attempts to capture it failed due to skilful evasion manoeuvres," the police reported - only through a "coordinated encirclement did the kangaroo seem to recognise the futility of another escape attempt". Almost without resistance, Mirko then let himself be "arrested" by the owner, he was returned unharmed to his enclosure.
