You can do your part to help save the environment by saying goodbye to cows and hello to kangaroos. Reaching into her bag of tricks, Mother Nature opted to leave out methane, which has shown to be 25% more potent as a green house gas than the carbon dioxide released by cars, in kangaroo farts. (Did I just say farts)? Since the Aussies have a stronghold on the kangaroo population, we may be out of luck.
Though, even if kangaroos roamed wild across America, you can bet cattle ranchers would lobby D.C. until the cows came home.
Ah well, they’re too darn cute to eat anyways.

I tried kangaroo meat while I was in Sydney this past July. The texture is similar to beef, but the meat is surprisingly sweet.
