While drones may be a must-have present for thousands of people this Christmas, it appears they are far less popular with kangaroos.

This video shows the incredible moment a kangaroo punched a drone that was getting too up close and personal out of the sky.

After following a group of marsupials in Hunter Valley, in New South Wales, Australia, one of the animals decided enough was enough and knocked the drone out of the air with a left hook.

The bizarre drone footage shows the device flying towards the group of seven kangaroos who are sat in a field.

As the drone nears, two curious kangaroos approach to see what the device is.

The pilot of the drone makes it back off momentarily, but as the flying camera returns to hover over the drones, one of the marsupials takes matters into its own hands.

Hopping up to bat the drone away, the kangaroo punches the camera with its left paw, causing it to fall from the sky.

Coming down with a thud, the drone rolls before eventually coming to a rest and turning off.

The owner of the drone was able to collect the footage later, but the camera was beyond repair.
