The pilot stated that the strip used for landing was aligned into the morning sun. On late final approach he noticed several kangaroos near the threshold of the strip and decided to land beyond the animals. He reported that just as the aircraft was about to touchdown he saw a small kangaroo and then heard a thump. An inspection of the aircraft revealed that the animal had been struck by the left tailplane. This accident was not the subject of an on-site investigation.
