THE GHASTLY TRUTH
Since colonisation, kangaroos have been unfairly maligned and persecuted, continually slaughtered and dispossessed in favour of farming and development. In Victoria, there were already far too many ‘culls’ without consideration of non-lethal alternatives, yet since the commercial industry trial began in 2014 (supposedly to reduce waste from ‘culling’) the combined average quotas have more than TRIPLED. The 2018 governmental evaluation of the 'Kangaroo Pet Food Trial' showed it may have actually increased waste, as well as being lawless, a threat to sustainability, and low-value to the tax payer. This damning report was ignored by Victorian Labor who launched the 'Kangaroo Harvesting Program', removed the need for landholder permits and opened nearly the whole state to cruel, dirty and devastating so-called ‘harvesting’.
Victorian shooters are targeting regional, metro and tourism areas, sometimes terrifyingly close to homes and businesses
