Default Re: Shipping parts to Australia

Synchro. Question for you, are the Kangaroos considered a pest or a positive animal? Are they hunted, and if so for food or eradication? I imagine I could get all of this info from a simple google search but just wondering. The Whitetail deer in our area used to be a positive animal, and everyone did everything they could to support the wildlife, but they've gotten soooo thick now that they have become a real nuisance animal and cause a lot of environmental damage. Planting trees is really useless in our area as the deer completely browse them down to nothing in just a year or so. The farmers are losing 10% of their crops to the "king's cattle", I have a fenced orchard, lost about a third of my young trees this last winter to deer and rabbits. Trees were fenced, wrapped, and sprayed with repellant but the snow was deep and all of the other available browse was eaten so I couldn't keep them away without shooting them. Just thinking a big bunch of roos could be a pain in the butt too. You have issues in Australia with feral cats and rabbits I think?
