Holy Crap!!!! Lets hope our Beavers never go hungry!!!!

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) - City residents were warned Wednesday not to mess with starving kangaroos bounding through the Australian capital in search of food, following reports that the desperate marsupials were attacking people and even pet dogs.

The Australian Capital Territory Environment Department warned residents to beware after a woman was attacked by a kangaroo while walking her poodle in a city park last week and another woman reported a kangaroo had drowned her golden retriever in a pond and seriously injured another two dogs in an unprovoked attack.

What I want to know is, why were the roos attacking people and dogs? They aren't carnivores, to my knowledge. Were the people just in the way? Maybe the roos are just wild with hunger.

I've heard that Oz also has a problem with rabbits.

When you decide you have too many bunnies with cute tails, you know who to call... [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img]
