    Until he publicly rejects the culling of kangaroos, I can’t take him seriously.

    You haven’t really lived until you’ve passed out drunk on a sofa made of kangaroo leather.

    If your in Australia, and you must eat meat, Kangaroo is, in my opinion, the most ethical choice by far.

    -Native (part of the local ecosystem)
    -Free Range (no factory farming evils)
    -Nutritious (good for you!)
    -Abundant (very)

    There are still plenty of negative aspects, like taking out the alpha males and leaving joeys for dead. [www.awpc.org.au]
    It’s still the meat industry.

    But what does Macca know? He thinks fish breath: [ukpress.google.com]

    From personal experience, being an Australian, I don’t know about any “mass culling” of kangaroos, though in some areas, they’re considered pests because they’re so common. But they’re native animals, so abundance shouldn’t be an issue.

    Their meat isn’t that freely available. Although, EVERY SINGLE DAMN TOURIST STORE stocks kangaroo scrotum coin pouches. I have no idea who in their right mind would buy them, but maybe that’s why Macca’s so worked up.
