s invaded a golf course in Australia, causing a stir at the Australian Women's Open in Canberra. TODAY.com's Dara Brown reports.
Karrie Webb of Australia waits for a mob of kangaroos to clear the fairway during day one of the Women's Australian Open at Royal Canberra Golf Club on Thursday, Feb. 14 in Canberra, Australia.
Kangaroos are not the only creatures troubling golfers in Canberra this week. According to The Associated Press, Swedish golfer Daniela Holmqvist used a tee to extract potentially fatal venom from her ankle after she was bitten by a spider during her qualifying round for the LPGA Tour's season-opening tournament.

Picture looks like a scene from Jurassic Park..
Kangaroos are a very common sight on the fairways at Royal Canberra. I think they're defined under the laws of the game as a movable hazard!
The real 'hazard' here are the golfers shooting golf balls around.
They weren't 'invading' the golf course, they were just passing through what used to be their own land. They don't understand white man and his fences, and drawing lines in the dirt. Those people should have been honoured indeed to see a beautiful kangaroo family still left alive and free.
Cute picture - looks like they are the spectators.
