This is a page from my latest book.The kangaroo is the iconic symbol of Australia. The bloodied national symbol of a nation of idiots whose leaders have turned away from their moral, social and environmental responsibility. The kangaroo's fate will be shared by the remaining unique wildlife in this country.What other country's citizens would eat their national emblem? Australia's unique heritage of indigenous animals have been treated with so much contempt and brutality since white man arrived. This is a nation led by soul-less politicians whose only concern is money, power and voter support.Take a protected species under the protection of the Department of the Environment, call it a resource, increase the killing, and you have the largest wildlife slaughter in the world today. The Code of Practice says joey's can be ripped from their slain mother's pouch and hit on the head with a water pipe or iron bar until dead; shooters bash joey's against their vehicles or the nearest tree trunk, kids as young as 12 are participating in this cruel practice.
