Animal rights activists have criticized a Texan woman for selling baby kangaroos for thousands of dollars on social media.

Wildlife breeder Cathy Cranmore has received so many angry messages and phone calls she has been forced to delete a social media post with a photo of six baby kangaroos and text advertising male and female joeys for sale in Mount Pleasant, 110 miles east of Dallas.
