Australian kangaroos are victims of the world's largest commercial slaughter of land-based wildlife. The suffering inflicted on kangaroos is immense. The opposition against the cruel, unsustainable commercial killing of kangaroos is great. California has banned the importation of kangaroo products. A Bill called The Kangaroo Protection Act has been introduced to US Congress. In response, Australian State Governments have developed methods to count kangaroos, generate population estimates and allocate commercial quotas. These methods are flawed. They are illogical. The figures don't make sense. They often defy science and logic. The management program collapses under scrutiny.

In truth, no one knows how many kangaroos live in any area of Australia. No one knows whether the commercial killing of kangaroos is sustainable. Kangaroos are visually extinct in many areas of Australia. Kangaroo numbers have declined in many places. Reality tells us that the commercial killing of kangaroos is cruel and unsustainable. This reality is hidden by overinflated population estimates and commercial quotas generated for the sole purpose of creating the illusion of sustainability.
