how long has it been illegal to hunt them? Is it the same in all states?

I heard that they will kick the snot outta ya if ya get to close or they feel threatened?

Any of you blokes from Aussie ever get your arse kicked by a Roo?

Great photo! Thanks!

I really want a roo leather hat!

Looks like he's ready to kick someones butt....Phil

I ate roo meat once . it did not taste too bad but it made my stomach feel a little jumpy

You've got the same chance of getting attacked by a 'roo as you do by a whitetail.

That said, in over fifty years worth of tens of thousands of 'roo encounters in the bush, my Dad did once have to leg-it back to the ute with a big buck 'roo on his tail; he was out checking a fence, and he reached his rifle just in time. But as I said, stuff like that hardly ever happens.

Like this Ben?

I saw that video a long time ago Guido.
That guy put deer scent all over his body just to see if he could provoke a whitetail into attacking him.........I guess it worked, maybe a little too well?    

He's an idiot in my opinion. He could have gotten killed and it tells you right on the bottle of scent "Do Not Put on Clothing or Body"

There was a true story one time in Outdoor Life magazine I believe, where a 10yr. old boy was attacked by a whitetail buck while squirrel hunting. The buck hooked him under the strap of his bib overalls and carried him through the woods until his father heard him screaming and came to help. The father managed to chase them down and get his boy free of the bucks headgear.
They think that the blood on the boy's bibs from the squirrels he had killed is what provoked the deer to attack? Who knows, but it happens occasionally.
I can't seem to get one close enough to attack me, one whiff and they all run away!  

Semo,

Didn't mean to put a year on that... That guy was out Elk hunting and a White tail came in and kicked His Butt... Still funny to see someone doing dumb Sh!t

      Something tells me a lot of others on here married one of the sisters (including me) as well! Although, I hope my mother-in-law doesn't have the same "parts" that this roo has! Thanks a lot...now that you've brought this up, I'm gonna hafta struggle to not see this kangaroo in my mind next time I see her!

I think I'd soil my pants if one of those guys jumped outta the bush in front of me while stalking...especially if it looked so similar to my mother-in-law!

Anyway, thanks for the cool pic!
