Just when I was thinking about Struck the movie, Dan told me about his kangaroo hunting in Darwin.

He had a go using a crossbow but he didn’t manage to open fire at one kangaroo…just cereal boxes.  HAHA.  He was telling us that the arrows used are meant to spin in its projectile motion, aiming to drill a hole through the kangaroo.  The kangaroo will bleed to its death.  Bleugh.

My colleague, Tim had an interesting story about kangaroos too.  He was driving around his hometown in northern Queensland and hit a kangaroo.  He stopped his car, went to the kangaroo and saw that the kangaroo was hopping back and forth the road with its leg twisted.  Because it was in the wee hours of the morning and if he called for help, the poor kangaroo would be in pain for at least hours to come.  So he wanted the kangaroo to suffer less, he took a hammer from his boot, hammered it on the head to end its suffering.

Hmm.

Kangaroo steak anyone?
