  Roger, a kangaroo who won global fame for his enormous size and impressive physique, has died at the age of 12.

  罗杰,一只因其庞大体型和令人印象深刻的体格而享誉全球的12岁袋鼠于近日去世。

  The roo was rescued as a joey after his mother was killed in a car accident, and grew up at the Kangaroo Sanctuary in Alice Springs in Australia.

  其它的母亲被车撞死后,这只袋鼠获救,并在澳大利亚艾丽斯·斯普林斯的袋鼠保护区长大。

  And he grew up a lot - ending up more than 2m tall and weighing 89kg.

  他长得很壮硕,最终长到了2米多高,体重89公斤。

  The sanctuary announced his death from old age at the weekend, saying they had lost their "beautiful boy".

  动物庇护所周末宣布,他因年老去世,并称他们失去了一个“漂亮的男孩”。

  "He was still a baby when I saved him from his mother’s pouch after she’d gotten killed on the highway," Chris "Brolga" Barns told the BBC.

  “当它的妈妈在高速公路上遇害后,它还是孩子,当时我把它从它母亲的育儿袋里救了出来,”克里斯“布罗加”邦斯告诉BBC。

  Mr Barns set up the sanctuary as a place to raise him. The marsupial soon became the alpha, and had 12 partners. There are currently more than 50 kangaroos at the site.

  邦斯先生建立了庇护所,用来抚养它。 这只袋鼠很快成为首领,并拥有12个伙伴。 目前该庇护所拥有超过50只袋鼠。

  "At the beginning, there was a close bond but soon he looked at me as competition and wanted to fight me," said Mr Barns.

  “一开始,我们关系很亲密,但很快它就把我当作竞争对手,想要和我打架,”邦斯先生说。

  Roger first came to the world’s attention in 2015 when images of him crushing a metal bucket in his hands using his huge muscles went viral.

  罗杰在2015年首次引起了全世界的注意,当时他用巨大的肌肉压碎手中的金属桶的图片传遍了网络。

  "Roger was as muscular as they come," Mr Barns said, pointing out that while his size and strength were not entirely unusual, they still set him apart from many other male kangaroos.

  “罗杰是肌肉最发达的袋鼠之一,”邦斯先生说,尽管他的体型和力量并不完全不同寻常,但这仍然令它在其他雄性袋鼠中很突出。

  "Ever since he was featured on TV and clips went viral, there’s been a lot of love and attention for him," Mr Barns said.

  “自从它在电视上播出且视频在网上疯传开来之后,它就一直受到很多的关注和爱戴,”邦斯先生说。

  "Now that he passed away, we are again getting a lot of attention and have received condolences from people around the world."

  “现在它去世了,我们再次得到了很多关注,并得到了世界各地的人们的悼念。”
