DETROIT – UPDATE: The kangaroo has been identified. His name is "Darwin" and he's in town as part of a licensed traveling zoo. Watch the video above for a clip of Darwin hopping along a Detroit street.
ORIGINAL: It's not everyday you see something like this around Detroit.
A video posted to Twitter Monday night appears to show a man running down Birchcrest Drive in Detroit with a kangaroo on a leash.
The 7-second video, shot on Snapchat with the Detroit geotag filter, shows the kangaroo hopping away after being let down to the ground.
There isn't anything specific in Michigan law that bans ownership of kangaroo, but it would likely require a permit or license. More on that here. We've reached out to the DNR for more on this.
