HOP SECRET REVEALED


Meet  Gerard  McBong-Bong , one of   Magnetic Island’s  famous  levitating  Allied  Rock Wallabies ,who  today   exclusively   reveals   why  he , Leaping Lena , of  meter” (sic) jumping  fame  (see AUSTRALIA’S MARSUPIAL   EVEL  KNIEVEL  PLANS  DEATH  DEFYING  GRAND  CANYON  LEAP)  and   other  clan  members  defy   gravity .
 
The  secret is  the   made- in- China  pogo  stick ,  cunningly   disguised  as   a cylindrical  tail , which  they   carry  about , enabling  them  to   bounce   up  and  down  rock outcrops  with  astonishing alacrity.    Readers  with   sharp   eyes   will   notice   that  Gerard  has   an  ugly looking   feral  cat   snuggled   into   his  side  for  safety.   The  feline  has  good reason  to  be  scared   because  Little  Darwin  believes  all  cats on  the  island , mostly covered by  a   national park , should   be  skinned  to   protect  the  diverse  birdlife  and   made  into  Davy  Crockett   hats   for  the   American   backpacker souvenir  trade.
