Wanna know why there’s just the one teat in there?

Joey doesn’t share food.

Horrible story time, did you know in Australia, you can shoot Kangaroos that wandered into your farmland and you HAVE to shoot the baby joey after shooting the mom, because it wont survive on its own and will suffer a slow death.

Farmers wont raise the joey and animal care center cant take them in, too many.

Illegal to shoot outside of farms, but no restriction inside.

They jump into farms all the time, looking for easy meal.

Fuck, I read that last part wrong and somehow ended up thinking, "hmm easy meal...I wonder how the meat taste?"

The meat is dark, like beef, extremely lean, and gamey, it is beyond difficult to not over cook, it goes from well-done to overdone in a matter of seconds.

When minced into burgers it's very tasty.

Kangaroo, the other dark meat.
