The kangaroo makes the average sheep seem intellectually gifted, so not much fun to hunt .Here they are continuously culled along with introduced vermin, of which we have many, from rabbits to camels. However, kangaroo meat is delicious, and leaner than beef. Here you can buy it at supermarkets, usually around the same cost as beef [/quote]

Dubbed “Project Sage Hopper” by the WWGD team responsible for evaluating the viability of Wyoming’s habitat for Australian marsupials, it has been in the planning stages for 3 years. The goal is two-fold: Create new and interesting wildlife viewing opportunities for tourists, and in several years, potentially provide additional hunting opportunities.
With a successful introduction of kangaroos into Wyoming’s ecosystem, WMI will review other opportunities for the state to be home to other marsupial species. A short-list for future proposed introductions include the koala, wallaby and the endangered Tasmanian Devil.
I'm not sure how I feel about our native animals being introduced in a new country. Hope it doesn't turn bad like our cane toads!
