“BANDIT” THE RENEGADE WALLAROO FROM SYRACUSE has been found dead alongside the New York State Thruway. The bouncing kangaroo-type animal had gained world-wide attention, and was covered on Firegeezer HERE, after he had escaped his home in Madison County, New York, in April.
Although he was on the loose for nearly two months, he was always close to home as he forgaged in the surrounding woodlands near the barn where Jeff Taylor keeps the animals for his traveling petting zoo.
State highway workers found Bandit near the roadway not more than 300 yards from home. They speculate that he was struck by a large vehicle such as a truck or bus sometime over the weekend.
