Indeed so. Early humans developed a real taste for their urine, which oddly, remained cold long after their migration due to the kangaroos' pouches being filled with ice from their own long journey.

The movie "Witness", starring Harrison Ford and Kelly McGillis, tells the story of a Philadelphia detective who is protecting a young murder witness, and they take refuge among the Amish community.
