Kangaroo
When the first explorers came to Australia, they asked the aborigines (Australian natives) "What is that hopping creature?" The aborigines replied, "Kangaroo" which meant "I don't understand." The explorers thought this was the name of the creature and this is how these lovely marsupials got their name.
