Sophie, a kangaroo, has two unusual jobs in Knoxville, Tennessee: she spends time at the downtown law firm Montpelier & Associates, where she and another kangaroo named Jack serve as figureheads, and at Blue Roo, a vape shop on Western Avenue owned by Dale Montpelier Jr. Her caretaker is Dale Montpelier Sr., the law firm's managing partner, who adopted Jack about four years before the article and Sophie roughly two years later. The kangaroos are also involved in community outreach, visiting schools and nursing homes across East Tennessee. It is legal to own a kangaroo in Tennessee without a license or tags, according to reports.
