Who created Elmo from Sesame Street? I'd predict Caroly Wilcox built, or at least supervised the building of Elmo. The puppet that became Elmo appeared on the show since the 1970s, and Wilcox supervised the Muppet Workshop for Sesame Street until retiring in 1990. If you're talking about who created the personality of Elmo, that would be Kevin Clash. He has voiced and performed Elmo since his debut in 1985 until 2012.

- kangaroo kangaroo or kan·ga·roos. Word History: A widely held belief has it that the word kangaroo comes from an Australian Aboriginal word meaning “I don't know.” This is in fact untrue. The word was first recorded in 1770 by Captain James Cook, when he landed to make repairs along the northeast coast of Australia. Then come the rat-kangaroos, or kangaroo-rats, constituting the sub-family Potoroinae; while the tree-kangaroos (Dendrolagus), rock-wallabie's (Petrogale), and wallabies and kangaroos (Macropus) form the Macropodinae (see Kangaroo).
