It's a very good documentary on Aussie animals and not just the ones that want to or will kill you.

They come to the table drains for whatever green pick is available after rain and are much more likely to be near roads then, especially if there's been a dry spell. ** They have no road sense and will dart hither and thither. There is no guarantee that, having hopped away from danger, they won't dart straight back. Overnight transports account for a lot of road kill.

Farming and grazing have made Australia Kangaroo Utopia.

** That's often.

This is about ten minutes from where I live:

Location of the picture above - just North of Southport Airport on this map

There is often a small mob in a paddock across the road from where I live.
