Will the Kangaroo attack people if they get to close?
How far away was the Kangaroo?

Nice photo Jim!

That gent looks like he's feeling very self-assured. I'm sure if you asked him he'd be saying "No Worries Mate!!!"

to me he kind of has that "don't mess with me" look , he looks like he could hold his own pretty well. BTW, great picture Jim.

Its pretty hard to get close to one in the wild, but if they are cornered they will stand up on their tail and kick with their back legs,
they can kill a large dog easily. But by and large like all herbivores flight is their first choice.

Kind of reminds me of Clint Eastwood when he said "Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while you shouldn't $%^$ with?" - you're a brave man Jim to get close enough to get a great picture like that.
