Lower roo quota insufficient to meet demand
5 Sep 2005
Exports of kangaroo meat have bounced to an all-time high, but the drought has meant there are fewer kangaroos available to be shot to meet the demand. The Australian Government quota for kangaroos to be culled in NSW is almost 1.2 million this year compared with 2.1 million in 2002. The kangaroo industry employs 4000 people nationally - half of whom are hunters - and is worth $200 million a year.
