SPARTA, Tenn. (WTVF) — Have you seen this kangaroo? Beau is missing from his home in Sparta!
Beau is a family pet and is only 9 months old. He stands at about 2 1/2 feet tall and runs very fast!
Unfortunately, the kids left the door open, so Bo got out on Thursday afternoon around 1 p.m.
If you see him, you're asked not to chase him but call 931-254-3528.
The family has teamed up with a Dog Rescue to help search for the Kangaroo.. They said there are a lot of water resources for the Kangaroo and a lot of place it could be hiding in White County.
Experts say if you do see it don’t approach it because it will just run away. They say it’s best to contact the owner.
It is legal to own a kangaroo in Tennessee and it doesn't require a permit.
