I DONT SEE WHAT THE CULL BITCHING IS ABOUT,HERE WE HAVE A GREEN (ah caps lock) bitch that agrees that 90 million have been killed since 1975 and yet still wants them protected....I wonder if the 90 million hadnt been killed how many we would have now.

A doe roo has one at foot,one in the pouch and one in the guts...they are top breeders.

We'd probably have LESS or a similar number. If they over ate vegetation, then we would have less. As they die off in droughts, the excess would die off anyway. Then breed up again like usual. I think it is the availability of water that is a key. And as you know, due to white man coming, we have bores, dams, tanks, pipes etc bringing water in summer and to dry places water never existed before. The reason we probably have at least EIGHT TIMES as many roos today as when Aboriginals occupied the whole country.

No reason at all not to utilise them in a sustainable managed way.
