CNN —You’re having fun playing golf and then a mob of kangaroos suddenly interrupts your round. Golfer Stephen Roche must have thought he’d gone hopping mad when he saw the stream of ‘roos approaching him. Roche explained in his post that the kangaroos were traversing the fourth hole on the St John’s course at the Heritage Golf and Country Club in Victoria, Australia. Stephen Roche/XWhile the kangaroos’ appearance left some jumping for joy, others jokingly attributed some well-worn golfing habits onto the marsupials. At Anglesea Golf Club, also in Victoria, players share the fairways with over 300 Eastern Grey kangaroos, with a popular bus tour run to educate visitors on its resident ‘roo population.
