Oliver was seen throughout the neighborhood for several nights, but was difficult to catch. According to Chief Deputy Doug Gill of the Perry County Sheriff's Office, neighbors began reporting sightings of the kangaroo around midnight on May 11. "He was right down the road. He hasn't left. We were aware of that the entire time, we were just having a hard time getting him because kangaroos are nocturnal and he moved mostly around at night, so we were really only relying on flashlights and on foot. We live in a heavily wooded area," McClaskey said. Upon his return, Oliver was evaluated by a veterinarian and found to be healthy.
