Ancient Kago does not know how to dance
A 25-million-year-old fossil revealed that the ancestors of Australia's iconic guava, which had been galloping on all fours, had canine-like fangs, and could even climb trees.
A member of the Australian research team played a role in bone analysis, paleontologist Ben Kear at La Trobe University told Age: 'This is an ancient ancestor of the present guerrilla great. ' He said the nearly complete skeleton of prehistoric kangaroo was found in the state of Queensland in the 1990s as a new species called nambaroo gillespieae.
This ancient animal is a member of the extinct group of guerrillas known as balbaridae. It is believed that this species has been replaced by the ancestors of the modern kangaroo.

Kear said that nambaroo is just the size of a small dog, with long fangs with large, strong front limbs that help them to gallop and jump like a foxtail pestle.
Ancient Kago also has two big toes facing each other and a flexible foot, a sign that they are capable of climbing as well as modern kangaroos. They live in the jungle, eat fruits and mushrooms. Kear said: 'You have this ancient kangaroo, imagine how he climbed over low branches, jumped in the forest, ate mushrooms and fallen fruits. It is a big difference to what we imagine from an adult kang-gu-ru you are currently seeing. '
Nambaroo's skeleton helps scientists learn more about the climate change event that has affected millions of years of evolution. They claim that kang-gu-ru evolved into a larger animal, jumping and grazing from about 10 to 15 million years before the land became barren grasslands.
'This skeleton is like Rosetta Stone, it is a fossilized essence that helps us understand the early stages of evolution of guava,' Kear said.
The findings of the study are published on the latest issue of Biology Archeology.
