Emus can travel great distances fast, if necessary, can sprint at 50 km/h for some distance at a time. They eat a variety of plants and insects. Emus are farmed for their meat, oil and leather. The Kangaroo is a common marsupial from the islands of Australia and New Guinea. There are 47 species of them. Kangaroos can hop up to 74 km per hour and go over 9 m in one hop. These shy animals live about 6 years in the wild and up to 20 in captivity. Most of them are active at night. Many kangaroos are in danger of extinction. Kangaroos eat grass, leaves, and roots.
