| выпрямиться во весь рост | rise to one's full height (... a man riding along a track saw a strange creature on all fours drinking from a creek. It was covered with grey hair, and witness George Summerell's first thought was: 'What an immense kangaroo'. But, on hearing the horse's feet on the track, it rose to its full height, of about 7 feet, and looked quietly at the horseman. Then stooping down again, it finished its drink, and then, picking up a stick that lay by it ... disappeared among the rocks and timber 150 yards away.
