How many legs does a kangaroo have? Yes – the kangaroo actually has three legs. This discovery was made in 2014 by a team from Canada's Simon Fraser University. They corralled red kangaroos through a chamber that measured the downward forces they exerted as they walked. One may also ask, do Kangaroos have arms or legs? Kangaroos have large, powerful hind legs, large feet adapted for leaping, a long muscular tail for balance, and a small head. Like most marsupials, female kangaroos have a pouch called a marsupium in which joeys complete postnatal development. Because of its grazing habits, the kangaroo has developed specialized teeth that are rare among mammals. A kangaroo has 4 legs. It has two strong hind legs, and two small forelegs. Although kangaroos hop on their two rear legs, they can use all four and their tail for a slow, dragging 'walk'. Watch a kangaroo in the Australian outback, and you'll notice something strange—when they walk, they have five "legs." As they graze on grasses and shrubs, they place their tails on the ground in time with their front legs, forming a tripodlike arrangement that supports their body while they bring their hind legs forward.
