From 1968 to 1970, the show captivated 300 million viewers across 128 countries, including three seasons and a movie.

That’s such a fun fact! Skippy the Bush Kangaroo really captured the imagination of viewers around the world. It’s fascinating how a show about a kangaroo became such a global sensation.
