Locals rally to save much-loved kangaroo from cull30/04/2021|5min
Locals in Chirnside Park lined the grounds of the Heritage Golf and Country Club on Tuesday evening after being informed a kangaroo cull would be taking place – including a much-loved elderly male roo known as ‘Big Al’ or ‘Mr Scarface’.
Manfred Zabinskas, who rescued and rehabilitated this kangaroo, spoke with Sky News about the issue.
Mr Zabinskas said the kangaroos were “certainly in danger on the Tuesday night” but now they “don’t know”.
“It was all short notice, residents received notification only that very day that there would be shooting in the evening – which was just astonishing,” he said.
