Roos, hare & family dogs
March 8, 2011
Eastern Grey Kangaroos (Macropus giganteus) are an all too common sight in the district. Their numbers can build up quickly, yet population control through predation is almost nil. With the good season that we’ve had, numbers are likely to increasing rapidly.
The Brown Hare (Lepus capensis) is another herbivore that’s probably doing well this season.

This is a common myth that kangaroos have no predators. Cars and dogs take a big toll plus humans with guns. They are our native herbivores, not a pest species, and attitudes need to change.
