Florida Landscape Contractor Claims Kangaroo Attacked Him

A landscaper in South Florida claims he was attacked by a kangaroo.

The man was working in the yard of a resident's home when he says the homeowner's animal ambushed him.

He even has scars on his back from where the animal allegedly bit and scratched him.

"As I went to pull his arms off of me, he then went ahead and bit me, making coughing noise at the same time," said Adam Rushetsky, the landscaper.

The owner believes that the man is over exaggerating the incident, citing that the animal is actually a wallaby and only stands at three feet tall.

The victim does plan on taking legal action against the animal's owner.
