Combat
Kangaroos generally flee from danger, like most herbivorous animals. It generally runs into water, as it is a good swimmer. If the predator is still following, then the kangaroo grapples it and tries to drown it. On solid ground, the kangaroo makes a quick Jump and uses both paws to deliver a hard kick. It also grapples its foe and viciously rakes it to death.
Hop (Ex) : A kangaroo moves by hopping. Doing so lets it ignore any movement penalty due to terrain.
Improved Grab (Ex) : To use this ability, a kangaroo must hit with its kick attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can make 2 rakes.
Rake (Ex) : Attack bonus +6 melee, damage 1d6+1.
Skills : Kangaroos have a +10 bonus to Jump checks, and a +4 bonus to Swim checks.
