Consider duck shooting. Several states banned this activity and ducks are now becoming pests. In contrast, work done by SSAA's Hunting and Conservation branches has been of help already. Such re-designation of land need not result in bottom line losses of productivity, but rather alter the ways people generate income. In a remarkable and refreshing turn-around from the values of a mere decade, Dr Archer's article includes a recipe for roast kangaroo and a nutritional analysis of kangaroo meat, which is healthier and to many tastier than the alternatives.
Harvesting kangaroos for food offers greater ecological benefits than growing domestic stock.
He also says there is no such thing as 'mad kangaroo disease'. This disease forms part of Dr Archer's biological catastrophe, since it results directly from intensive farming practices to which kangaroos are not subjected. Kangaroo meat is a safer, more natural, less modified product. Much of our country is being irreversibly degraded. Genetic opportunities are being thrown away.
