I have no problem with Paul McCartney's attempts to have these kangaroos moved to a better location; to me this is the prefered outcome.
However, as to his assertion, "There is an urgent need for action to protect kangaroos from a barbaric industry which slaughters them for meat and leather," he said in the message. ( in IBN News.)
The humble kangaroo is one of the least damaging animals for the Australian environment, far less than cattle and sheep.
So will he be campaigning for stopping all animals being killed for for meat as well or was this just a glib and catch cry for attention.
Especially when there would be ample recourse under australian law to simply have the animals humanely removed. You have the money use it wisely.
