The marsupial was spotted on surveillance video trying to hop through the gates of the Russian Embassy in Canberra, 9News reported.

The Russian embassy later shared the video on its Twitter page, saying that the CCTV cameras “recorded an event of unauthorized entry. No one got hurt.” The video shows the kangaroo trying to squeeze through the bars of the embassy’s gates multiple times, almost appearing to get stuck, before hopping away.

“It’s Australia, and in Australia, it happens,” a Russian diplomat told The Canberra Times.

“There are not so many kangaroos in Russia,” Ilya Roshchenkov at the embassy told The Canberra Times. “In Moscow Zoo, there are some. They are very pretty.”
