Mama 'Roo's Job

When I was young, I was about the size of a cherry. Eventually, I was about the size of a apple, living in the pouch of my mama, with my brother, Joe. Joe and I spent the first 8 months in our pouch, being well protected and warm. Although the male kangaroos don't have much of job, they are the main protectors of the mob ( a group of kangaroos ). They will stand on their hind legs and "box". My mama, has protected us since we were young, that is every female kangaroos niche, or job. She has fed us, bathed us, taught us how to jump real high and of course, my mama has kept us well protected.
