Meet the mob of street-smart kangaroos moving into Australia’s capital city and the ecologists who follow their every move. Over the course of one drought-stricken year, follow mob leader, Black Spot, and kangaroo mother, Madge, with her two young joeys — mischievous Sonny and tiny pouch-bound Alice. This is a look at what happens when human development encroaches on wildlife habitat and two very different species are forced to co-exist. Buy the DVD. This film premiered on January 11, 2012. (Video limited to U.S. & Territories.)

Cool
Quess they have their kangaroos to watch out for…..we have our whitetail deer here!
Why oh why do you block access from Canada?
I can watch PBS OTA or via cable without restriction but you deny access over the net – and to think that major funding comes from the Toronto area for the Buffalo station – this stance is utterly unreasonable.
Please change this silly situation ASAP
I spent over a month in Canberra a couple of years ago, as my brother has lived there (along with his family) for over 20 years. There wasn’t an area I didn’t recognize! Such a lovely area!
I wish he could see the show, but you have blocked access to anyone outside this country…why?
As gcai said, Please change this silly situation, ASAP.
Unable to watch in Alaska as well…
**PLEASE FIX!!**
Cool animals. Have any of you bleeding heart animal (so called) rights clowns ever seen when disease decimates a group of animals because of overpopulation?This horrid condition is usually caused because of lack of predators .Do some research before you bad mouth the culling procedure.I do recall a few years back good old McDonald’s was selling Roo burgers unknowingly.Bon Appetit.
Kangaroo Mob is an interesting and enjoyable film. I am not a fan of “culling” ANY animals because they are perceived to be in the way of human progress. We humans are the ones “invading their” territories! The animals have as much right to be here on this earth as we humans. Maybe more! Happy to see that their plight is memorialized in this film, showing and explaining the fine work done by caretakers and caring fans.
You’re talking about kangaroos in my backyard (living here in Canberra) – but sadly I can’t see what you’re saying.
rude is wat it is
I plead with you from the island of Guam to deal with the “rights restrictions” that
seem to have been placed on trying to view videos off the website from Guam.
I keep getting a “not able to view due to rights restrictions” message when I
click on Nature full episodes. But, you also have a statement that the videos
are limited to the “US and territories.” Guam IS a US territory. Please correct
this so those ofo us on Guam can watch–please!

That was an unusual program. I have mixed feelings about. At one point, NATURE is on the kangaroo team. Then they switch to the human team. Then to kangaroos. Then to humans. Not one of your better programs, PBS.
Its sad the backspot died. But why did you show the litel kid get hurt;(? But it was so butefull.
I am FIRST to say that Nature on PBS has always been one of my all-time favorite tv programs. Yet something about this episode bothers me–and I will leave it at that. I loved watching the ‘Roos hopping around–but just “dont have what it takes” to see a kangaroo–or any animal for that matter–dead due to auto collision. Other than that, I noticed this was ANOTHER episode “available in US and territories only” and that is SO not fair. Some one will now no doubt chime in that life isnt fair–how about it is just plain WRONG that it was available in US and Territories only! especially when sponsors are denied access—I dont get it. But as always, thank you to PBS
‘for another new episode of Nature
With a friend in the USA just mentioning this website and Canberra roo article to me, I thought I would take a look, but like the other Canberra resident (and many others elsewhere in the world it seems) I also found it blocked for my region… figure that…
