The giant boomer was pictured having a splash in the Boodjidup Creek, in Margaret River – about four hours south of Perth.
With its muscles bulging as it stood in the flowing waist-deep water, the majestic creature offered a puzzled expression to its inquisitive onlookers.

Some speculated the photographer’s pet dog had chased the creature into the river – the kangaroo retreating in the water to protect itself.
It was also suggested bucks used standing in water as a tactic to entice dogs towards them, making it easy for them to plan an attack.
