Skippy the Bush Kangaroo was a children's television show that originated in Australia. It was set in New South Wales in the fictitious "Waratah National Park", and, according to a 2009 documentary made about the series, it did not use kangaroos as the main character, but wallabies. (There has been some scepticism regarding this, as others are of the firm opinion that Eastern Grey kangaroos were used.) Numerous different animals were used, partly because they kept escaping, and wallabies and kangaroos are notoriously untrainable.
Regardless of whether wallabies or kangaroos were used, however, it is not known when any of the Skippy wallabies or kangaroos died. Skippy herself was never "killed off" in the series.
