I'm surprised he's still active!I'm not sure it is always a blessing
Not long ago he was on the masked singer. People were in tears including me. Just an appreciation for him. That we were honored with his presence.

Butterfly McQueen. She was the maid (Prissy) in Gone with the Wind. Such a tragic, painful death. I was two months old when she died.

There is a black lady at a store I go to that is so sweet and sounds just like her. I have read about McQueen and her beliefs or lack thereof but I have not heard anything concerning her death.

Skippy the Bush Kangaroo.
The trouble was that every episode used between nine and fifteen kangaroos.
Skippy the Bush Kangaroo - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
Animal actors[edit]
Between nine and fifteen kangaroos were used for each show. The apparent manual dexterity was often achieved by using separate arms in the hands of human operators. Skippy's trademark "tchk tchk tchk" noise was entirely fictional. Kangaroos make no such sounds. But some sort of sound was needed for the series, and someone came up with the idea of clicking their tongue to make the sound. To this day, many people believe that kangaroos make "tchk tchk" noises.[5][6] To make Skippy move her mouth, supposedly creating the vocalisations, production staff gave the kangaroos chocolate, chewing gum or grass and, in some cases, an elastic band around the lower jaw.
A menagerie of other animals and birds were utilised for the show, including dingoes, possums, emus, galahs and koalas, all trained and managed by Scotty Denholm, a former NSW police dog trainer. In theory there was only one Skippy, but in reality there were many stand-ins. "Like people, some kangaroos are brighter than others," said producer Dennis Hill. Nonetheless there are limits to what you can get a kangaroo to do. Often the actors could be noticed patting the kangaroo to get her to move, or holding her to prevent her moving. Kangaroo paw bottle-openers, of a type that could be purchased at any souvenir shop, were utilised for close-up scenes of Skippy opening doors or picking up objects. There was also a stuffed kangaroo from a taxidermist used for scenes from behind, or when Skippy was required to jump into a confined space such as the helicopter.[5][6]
