False things that other countries hear about Aussies lol....

@restoreone Said

wow a collectors item cool

OK now tell us something that few outside of Aussie land know

@Demented Said

In the area I live in we do still sometimes come across the odd Roo,but the population is getting to much for them now,plus this may sound cruel,but they are being poisoned off to make way for suburbia.
Your probably thinking now "why not catch them and let them go in the wild",that would be good if it was an easy excercise but a roo can hop up to 35 mph when chased ,Jump over a 6 foot fence with ease,it's far easier to and safer to poison them off.

Usually you see them on out on the highways or Open roads as we refer to them between cities,Deer don't like being out in the open,as you know so they stay in certain pockets of the country where there's good water and food for them, and as you mentioned, someone's garden nearby .

Emu's? we don't see all that often,very rarely to be honest,they are mainly way outside the city's in remote areas and unless your driving out there chances are you still won't see one.

@Demented Said

Like what?? what would you like to know about?

@townie_guy Said

Due to strange sexual tendancies, the modern day Aussie is half human and half kangeroo

@restoreone Said

Aussie can jump all they want. Note she now has 10 million hits in just 4 days.What a great smile and what a great fun way to get ready for a race,

@restoreone Said

we have the same problem here with deer. There are sharp shooter companies all they do is go city to city shooting deer. they give the meat to the homeless

@Demented Said

When we've had a lot of rain and the Roo's become plague proportions,they have a cull on them and like you say ,they get professionals to do the shooting.

The meat as I described last night is strong to the taste and has to be cooked a special way to make it edible,but mostly it just used for Dog Food,and even then has to be cooked for the Dog because it's riddled with worms.

The thing about Kangaroo's that a lot of people outside Australia don't know is that a Female Roo ,when there's plenty of food around,is constantly pregnant.
They can have three babies (Joey's as they are known) going all at the same time,one in the womb,one very tiny and stuck on a nipple and the bigger Joey that can fend for itself but still needs Mum's pouch to climb into for safety.

@restoreone Said

What would be one place a tourist would go that most don't?

@restoreone Said

wow now that is something I did not know about.Can they use the hide for anything like clothing?

@Demented Said

That's a hard question,it all depends on what the tourist wants to see.
My wife and I went over to Hawaii in 99,we hired a car and just drove around the island of Oahu ,yeah we did the tourist thing but then went into places that tourists wouldn't normally go,like suburban shopping centers ,we had a great time just talking to people and meeting people,actually I'll say the hospitality we were shown was brilliant .

@restoreone Said

me and my boys like action adventure.Remember i jump out of planes ride Harley s

next time you go to Hawaii try the Big Island I found it to be better.

less tourist The other Islands can be a little more expensive.

@Demented Said

Jumping out of planes,yep that can be arranged for you here,there are places here where you can Hire bikes,so it you want real adventure you can hire a Harley and try your luck on our roads,"but NOT in a city",city drivers tend to be one of two kinds Brain Dead of Aggressive.

The Brain Dead's have no idea why they're out there or what they are doing and the Aggressive one's are the one's trying to earn a living.

@restoreone Said

ok now what do think is the most beautiful place in Australia

Here in the USA I would have to say the Grand Canyon
