TAMS kicks off skippy slaughter

Pop —- Did you hear anyth……..

It is much nicer than the regular roo cull that happens on the daily commute.

I’m a shift worker and many a morning a see, living skippy on the side of the road, I just slow down, I have only ever hit one kangaroo in my driving life and that was because i was going to fast (not speeding)but going to fast for that time of the morning.

We just all need to slow down at night and early morning.

I don’t agree with the culling, I’m with Misschief, we humans have done more damage than any animal.

Maybe we should have a “cull the humans day”, and all the rapists and murders and bad criminals should stand in a paddock and we can shoot them instead of innocent animals.

Let the comments roll in….

Roo cull happens everyday on William Hovell (especially the sections of road without lights). There is a daily game of “Frogger” from dusk till dawn.

Damn italics

I dare you to find one that proves it.

And you forgot to mention destruction of legless lizard, fish and eagle and whatever else habitat.

I feel sorry for the poor kangaroo. 550 is a huge number for that area. Perhaps it does seem like there are a lot of kangaroos around but people must bear in mind (and perhaps accept) that they are drawn to the natural grasslands and catchments of this area and have always been. Thanks to our domination of the region, kangaroo numbers are far less than they were in bygone days – I dare you to find a longitudinal study that reputes this. More should be said about human destruction of our natural environment. I recall East O’Malley’s endangered yellowbox woodland being destroyed in 2003 to make way for residential development. The woodland provided habitat for the scarlet robin. And in building the GDE, areas of Black Mountain Nature Reserve were revoked causing the loss of the Southern Boobook from that area altogether.

Sshhhhh … Skip! Keep quiet or they’ll find you!

sigh. Watch the activists do an International campaign to stop the slaughter

Skippy tastes good! And is good for you, too.

Eating and wearing Skippy (ie farming) will make sure we keep Skippy alive. (Possum fur is fabulous. Ask any NZer.)

Get rid of the ferals: sheep, cows, camels, donkeys, horses, pigs, cats, dogs,….

mmmmm, skippy burgers! :)))
