See second post above for reference for those that can’t reply without some hate or condescending remark.

Thanks admin. It's refreshing to have you snap some back to reality. This link, for those interested in logic and reasoning, could be used as a guide for debate going forward. What a beautiful morning here in Western Australia.

Do people hunt them and eat them like deer here ?

Do people hunt them and eat them like deer here ?

In the west I'm not aware of an official hunting season like the deer season I was familiar with in Manitoba. Some people do eat them out in the country but you do see some cuts in the city stores. There are some pet food businesses that buy kangaroo meat from contractors that get paid to cull the numbers. In that photo from last week I was helping a friend do some soil testing in a pasture to be renovated. The white stripe across the eucalyptus trees in the back is netting over a small vineyard. The kangaroo is truly an amazing animal. It can jump 9-10 ft high although a 6 or 8 ft fence would keep most out. In full stride they can reach 30 ft easy between hops. The females are always pregnant. They can have a joey at foot. Also a younger one in the pouch. And then an embryo which they can actually put on "hold" if good grazing is scarce like in a drought.

We might eat it hmmm once a month. Get equivalent of rib eye cut.

Spicy plum sauce always for us.

Yep gamey flavour.

Not everyone’s cup of tea.

4 types of Roos in Australia we have western grays medium size. Reds are the big ones that fight a bit more. Only ever seen one here. Then of course wallaby’s not sure how many types a few I guess.

We rarely shoot them.

A freind maybe 350 kms north of me during drought shot from memory about 200 in a week got pro in they were hung up for pet good. All back again a week later

No one really "likes" winter, but I saw moisture in the snow pic and hot dry in the roo pic. Great seeing both.

Congrats Nicole!
Kids are amazing and humbling at the same time. Ours love tractor time and seeing the cows too. Thanks for cleaning this place up as it can get a little “trashy” at times…….🍀

In theory, you are correct and it shouldn't change anything by moving to a different forum. But for whatever reason, the worst offenders get offended at having to post in a different forum so they don't Post in purgatory, and they don't post here because they're not permitted to post their inflammatory off topic here, and both forums end forums up being civil as a result. The rest of us somehow managed to be civil regardless of where we post.
Seems like a win-win situation to me.
I just wish it was that easy to get my children to behave...
