I was expecting something environmental related from the headline like an outbreak or something but no…

Investigation launched after gunshot wounds and injuries from being hit by vehicles found on bodies at Gobarup and near Horsham

I mean, its legal for farmers to shoot them…

Why?

Same reason farmers shoot wild pigs or deer, they destroy the crops.

Kangaroo numbers have exploded since British settlement. There are roughly 15 million of these Eastern greys and up to 50 million kangaroos in total as they breed in large cycles and cause huge issues.

I’m sure it has been asked, but can you not eat more of them?

We do eat a lot of them, and there are special programs for farmers to get professionals to come out kill them and ship them off to be turned into food.

I’ve never seen exported kangaroo meat. Is that even a thing? Am I missing out much? How good it is?

It’s kinda meh tbh.

Tastes like a pretty generic meat, best used minced for a burger or something.

Emu steaks can be nice if prepared well.

Now crocodile is fucking fantastic, it’s like chicken and squid together.

I can’t even eat rabbits, and you guys down there chomping on crocodile. Respect!

It’s really good, very lean meat, slightly sweet and not too gamey. It’s very expensive here in NSW at least, I’ve had better luck with prices in Victoria but haven’t been there in ages so not sure of how it’s priced in comparison to other meats atm.

Sounds like humans.

Not in Victoria.

In Victoria, all wildlife is protected under the Wildlife Act. It is illegal to disturb or destroy wildlife without an appropriate authorisation, licence or exemption

Now they don’t need to apply for an ACTW if:

shooting Eastern or Western Grey Kangaroos if you are using an authorised harvester as part of the Kangaroo Harvesting Program

But this clearly wasn’t done in conjunction with a harvester, an ACTW wasn’t obtained, and most importantly it he article mentions many of them being killed by vehicles.

This is the case of some fucksticks going spotlighting in their utes across multiple properties.
