10 Weird DC Comic Pets
4. Jumpa
Jumpa is Wonder Woman's favourite Kanga, a species of kangaroo-like aliens that the Amazons ride. The species was brought to Themyscira by a group of space-exploring Amazons and are used by the Amazons on Paradise Island for fun rides as well as sport. One sport involves riding Kangas while trying to lasso and bind opponents, a sport Wonder Woman has proven very good at. Kangas are also highly adaptive, possess both super speed and strength and are capable of short flights.
Wonder Woman trained Jumpa to be able to help her in crime fighting although the Kanga would often remain on Paradise Island. The two formed a close bond, with Wonder Woman seeing Jumpa as more than just a mount, unlike the other Amazons, who see their Kangas as steeds to be ridden.
Although Jumpa and the rest of the Kanga have faded from comic continuity, she remains popular in the DC Super Pets, and was mentioned as Wonder Woman's pet in a 2018 Batman comic (#40) where Wonder Woman confided in Bruce that she missed Jumpa.
