True
A newborn baby kangaroo is said to be small enough to fit in a teaspoon.
Infact verdict: True (88/100).
The claim that a newborn baby kangaroo can fit in a teaspoon is mostly accurate. According to the evidence, newborn kangaroos, known as joeys, are typically less than an inch long and weigh less than a gram at birth, which is comparable in size to a teaspoon. The web evidence supports that newborn joeys are about the size of a jelly bean or a small grape. Therefore, it is plausible for a newborn joey to fit in a teaspoon due to its tiny size at birth.
