Some Alabamans thought they might have been transported to Australia when they saw a kangaroo hopping along down the highway. The Macon County Sheriff says the animal got loose and made its way to an interstate,

A section of Alabama highway was temporarily closed when an escaped kangaroo entered the roadway and caused a two-vehicle crash.

It was a chaotic scene along Interstate 85 in Central Alabama on Tuesday, after reports of a kangaroo causing traffic problems was received by dispatchers. After at least one crash, the highway was briefly closed so that authorities could capture the animal.
