TakaM: What? I've never seen a kangaroo drag it's tail during a sprint-hop before...at least not on any of the documentaries I watch.
Oh, and that pic of yours has an extreme likeness to WindWaker...You did a good job, if imitation is what you were after.

i remember reading it somewhere.. might not be true, but I think kangaroos can only jump if their tail is on the ground at the point they push off.. they can lift it in mid air I guess, might be a balance issue or maybe its some wierd connection in their bones

and my image, I did start off intending for a windwaker-esque image, its just how it progressed, made it easier to draw so I figured I'd embrace it :P

My animation was referenced by a real kangaroo jump, so I guess it's only on the first jump and once they're sprinting it isn't needed anymore. I may need to add some elasticity to the jump though
