Sure. Why not?

Plus, kangaroo meat is reported to improve consumers' skills both at jumping and boxing.

It's low in sodium, too.

I was always a bit confused that they didn't eat more of it, frankly. It's fucking hard to grow sheep out there, and there are 'roos hopping all over.

Come to think of it, maybe we should raise more buffalo.

(Or rewild North America with mammut and antelope. And eat that. Mmmm. Mammut.)

Actually, Garnaut is an economist, and he's been commissioned to do the Australian equivalent of a Stern Review, with particular emphasis on the design of a carbon ETS (emissions trading scheme).

His final report was due out this week, and has arrived in the midst of a financial meltdown. Go figure.

Rich and gamey.

This place in Melbourne used to have regular off-menu specials including kangaroo-meat dishes.

Gamey like venison, or stronger? Because I love me some good venison.

I've eaten Kangaroo, and it is fucking delicious. Maybe it depends on quality, but when I ate it it was not gamey at all.

It's not nearly as strong as venison.

Good luck with that. The American bison (which is what I assume you're referring to) barely exists.

The only continuously wild bison herd in the United States resides within Yellowstone National Park. Numbering between 3,000 and 3,500, this herd is descended from a remnant population of 23 individual mountain bison that survived the mass slaughter of the 1800s by hiding out in the Pelican Valley of Yellowstone Park. In 1902, a captive herd of 21 Plains bison were introduced to the Lamar Valley and managed as livestock until the 1960s, when a policy of natural regulation was adopted by the park.

What you mostly see these days are beefalo, a cross-breed of cattle and buffalo. I'll agree they are quite tasty (I ate nothing but beefalo during my stay in Denver), and lower in fat and cholesterol too.

The best meat I've ever had.

And the leanest.

I lived off the stuff when I was in Oz, and not just because it's cheap.

Well shit. I had no idea the bottleneck had been that extreme. Still, getting a bison herd going would be pretty cool. Although my personal guess is that the throngs of bison on the plains (an extreme monoculture) had more to do with many other species having already gone extinct. You know how the serengeti has big herd, but they're diverse? That's how North America used to be. NEEDS MORE MAMMUT.
