Officials from the Circus Alessio said Skippy, the Tasmanian kangaroo, escaped outside the town of St. Georgen.

There is a kangaroo named Skippy who has escaped from a circus in Germany twice in the last week. He has escaped into the woods and the Black Forest and now workers are looking for him.

3. Find out where this event took place and include some information about this place.

 

 

Skippy escaped from a town in Germany called Bad Duerrheim. Skippy escaped into a forest called the Black Forest which is in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Baden-Württemberg is the state capital of Stuttgart, also Mannheim and Karlsruhe. 

4. Tell us when this event happened and explain what might happen in the future.

Skippy escaped from a circus in Germany on Monday the 29th of September. In the future he may run away again and the officials from the circus may keep him locked up to keep him from hopping away again.

5. Explain in your own words why this event took place.

I think this event took place because Skippy the kangaroo did not like it at the circus. I think he might have felt threatened and hurt and really wanted to leave.
