'The VICE Guide to Right Now'
A huge and menacing kangaroo is sauntering around Brisbane right now, terrifying residents and flexing his freaky kangaroo muscles. The 6'6" 'roo,
inexplicably nicknamed "Dave," has spent the past week glowering at families in Brisbane's quiet North Lakes neighborhood and eyeing dogs like he's sizing them up for a tasty meal. Like all
great villains, Dave has a distinguishing facial deformity—a split left ear—to showcase the fact that he's been through some
serious scrapes in the past and lived to tell the tale. Wild kangaroos are nothing new in Brisbane, but the size and "come at me bro" attitude of Dave is keeping North Lakes residents on their toes.
"He's got massive, massive muscles, big pecs, and everything," one woman told
CNN. "I don't really want to take him on."
"It's a big one," another resident agreed.
