This couple is a daily visitor to my house and sometimes they bring the extended family with joeys.

Cute?...yes. But that big boy doesnt back off when you go near him and when I have the dogs, he actually comes at me.

They are beautiful creatures though.

I like the possums.
Nearly every episode of Animal Rescue they seem to need to be hauled out of trouble.
But they look so CUTE!

That and mangy dogs kept by bogans of course.
But they are ususually flea ridden and have to be put down.
(and the dogs!)

that is *so* cool!

is that your neighborhood, Ducks?

Wait, what?!
Watching I'm a Celebrity - they had possum in their sausages tonight?!?!?

Nooooooes!

The way they stand and their physique...they look like bodybuilders!

I wouldn't want to scrap with one.

That is so cool.

How do they, um, taste?

I've eaten roo.
It's good. But easy to overcook.
Those buggers are ACTIVE and that means a low fat content.

with their tongues! just like you and me!

Snicker.

I missed the thrust of the question.
It's red meat. It's steaky and a tiny bit gamey.
But Jim's answer FTW.

That big fella is pretty damn big. Given where you are and how he looks I presume he's an Eastern Gray rather than a Red, so by that standard he is BIG.
He could give someone a right kicking.

It is cool, but a little dangerous. Especially for the dogs. Are there any dams or lakes nearby?

And when he chases you, trying to escape you run into venomous spiders and snakes... or Crocodiles. They work together you know. :yesnod:

dont forget the drop bears !!!

Trap-door wombats!

Yeah, Bri, that's right out my front door.

Zen, there's some manmade lakes two blocks from here, when were on the farm, when lost a dog to drowning at the paws of a roo. He is huge for a Grey and he shows no fear.

I dont mind im though, although I don't like cleaning up his shit.

This looks like those shopped NASA photos of the moon. It stretches credulity. :gray:

Merry Christmas and

Foot, you do know male kangaroos don't have pouches right? lol

taking liberties

Lols.

I wouldn't be taking liberties with that bad boy if I were you foot. lol

Dont forget the lemurs ,

Yeah they do!! See them hanging down betwee his legs?

Yeah, they stick out like dogs balls. ;)

1. Would it attack you if you went outside?

2. If yes to #1, Can you eat them?

Careful Merc. Roo meat is to some as horse meat is to others.

Delicious?

A horse is a horse, first course, first course.

Taking liberties with a roo is somewhat different to just going outside, isn't it?
I go outside every day. Sadly my memory of the last time I took liberities with anyone has faded to grey...!

But what if when you went outside a roo attacked you? And there was always a threat of one lurking behind a tree in your yard.

"It was him or me, warden."

I liked this one....:)

Really depends on the Roo's history I guess.

These being town roos are not inclined to run away, especially this big boy protecting his girls and babies.

I have a healthy respect, I have taught the kids the same.
