First 90 Kangaroos released in Wyoming
« on: April 01, 2017, 04:03:28 pm »
(Dubois, Wyo) – The Wyoming Wild Game Department (WWGD) partnering with the Wyoming Migration Initiative (WMI) have released the first of 5 planned batches of 90 Antilopine Kangaroos into the Wyoming outdoors.

Dubbed “Project Sage Hopper” by the WWGD team responsible for evaluating the viability of Wyoming’s habitat for Australian marsupials, it has been in the planning stages for 3 years. The goal is two-fold: Create new and interesting wildlife viewing opportunities for tourists, and in several years, potentially provide additional hunting opportunities.

Is kangaroo meat good?  Are we to the point of starvation and therefore needing more game?  I don't think so.

Tastes like chicken. Besides, no worries. The wolves will have them gone in no time.

Why?

For hunting opportunities, or so tight fisted visitors can pretend they're in the Outback?

There's something about this that doesn't seem right.

I tried the the beaver tail when I was a kid at the Boy Scout Jamboree and I'm a grandfather now.

I tried the grizzly too. Couldn't bear it.

Yeah.  I can relate.  I tried frog legs once.

Not really rattlesnake. It strikes without warning.

I don't know about this spring hunt, @Cripplecreek. If you wait a little longer you get a lot more joey out of it.
