Do Wallabies fall under those 50 kinds of Kangaroos? They look like cute little baby ones. Ever eat Kangaroo tail? (Don't tell me it tastes like chicken!)

I've only heard of Dingoes in Australia as native to the animal kingdom. No wolves, but I will check on both the status of wolves and the kangaroo stuff.

Allegedly, there is a take-out type restaurant in Sydney, I think, which serves "Skippy Burgers". They're basically hamburgers made from ground kangaroo meat. As for the name, I think there was a children's show on Australian tv in the sixties or seventies about the adventures of some children and their pet kangaroo, Skippy.

Oh no! And they named the place after a beloved critter? Makes me think of Captain Kangaroo from my childhood. *laugh*

Hi Wolfie!

I know the name is just such sick humor. Poor Skippy.

It would be really bizarre if one of the child actors from the show grew up to open the place which sells said "Skippy Burgers".
