Just back from a fabulous holiday in India, and drove from Brisbane to home today, turned off the New England at Glen Innes
I hardly ever see a 'roo on the New England Highway north of Tenterfield but driving south today the road killed 'roos started just out of Brisbane and I gave up counting after the fiftieth and that's just the ones that died on the road, no one could know how many got away from the road and died in the bush.
The number of live ones waiting at the side of the road, ready to make a dash into oblivion was enough to have me slow down to 80 kph in 100 zones, fortunately being Sunday there was very little traffic.

Here's some good advice per the ABC:

Not many around here, south of Brisbane. We usually have a mob of 20 or 30 grazing 5 or 6 properties of about 100 acres along the Albert river. There have only been about half a dozen for the last 6 months or so.

I don't know where they have gone. With the dry of the last few months, & the heavy frosts, there can't be much feed in the heavier bush in the ranges, & my dairy farmer mate has not had many on his irrigated forager crops.

I don't miss them. They give me a lot of work repairing the electric fences they rip down regularly. They are definitely not very smart animals.

Pacific highway has a dead one about every two klm, the newer parts had built in fences and other things to try to stop them and other animals getting on the road, often quite strange like the possum runs over the roads, and tunnels under them, even foot pads! sand, so poor fools like me could record weekly what type of beast went under the road, in time the feathers proved Foxes and wild dogs had found a new fast food outlet

Nice to have had a trip to India, but what has that to do with kangaroos? You might as well have just come back from the toilet if all you want to do is talk about kangaroos.

ttbn,

Thank you for that contribution.

The point of raising the issue is that many people are not aware of the dangers posed by 'roos, witness the number of dead 'roos on the roads: the link given is full of sound advice.

The legal owners of said 'roos take no responsibility for damage caused by them.

Still nothing to do with India, Is Mise.
