A man has died after a suspected kangaroo attack in Australia

Police were forced to put down a kangaroo, which reportedly attacked a 77-year-old male in Australia.

It’s understood the man was keeping the kangaroo as a pet at his property in Redmond, Western Australia when it attacked him at the weekend.

Authorities were called after a family member found the man with serious injuries.

They killed the animal to allow paramedics to enter in a safe manner. However, the man died a short time later.

Australia hasn’t recorded a death caused by a kangaroo since 1936.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.
