Kangaroos

Kangaroos

Kangaroos shot in Australia for their meat or skins can suffer when killed depending on the competency of the shooter and the conditions in which they're killed. If the kangaroo is female then her joey may also suffer an inhumane death. If your organisation sources product from kangaroo there’s a lot you can do to better understand your current supply, and where it can be improved.

Note RSPCA Australia is opposed to the killing of wild animals for commercial purposes unless this meets specific criteria. See our policy on the utilisation of wild animals
