There are 47 different kinds of kangaroos（袋鼠）. The smallest are about a quarter of a meter long; the biggest are taller than a man.

　　 Kangaroos have very long strong back legs. These are used for jumping. They also have long strong tails（尾巴）used for resting on. Kangaroos' front legs are much shorter, and are almost like arms. Kangaroos' heads are quite small, but their ears are quite large.
