          A fleshlight to spice it up for both at the very beginning of your supposedly LAST sexual relationship doesn't sound that bad. Perhaps you meant a fleshlight gifted to a lady?

          Anyway, I'm disoriented now. I thought it's about intactful situations that's going to embarass you in front of confused "friends"!

          I must admit, though, I feel that Stinge Master imagines those friends and situations different.

    Thanks - Bought 2. Most of the negative commenters have probably never been out into the bush and seen just how much of an abundance of roo's are out there. With no natural predators, its not surprising. We should be utilising them a lot more than we currently do.

    • GnarlyKnuckles on 18/10/2021 - 14:09

      As someone pointed out above, the dingo is a natural predator of the roo. You are right though, in almost all places where there are roos, dingoes have been unceremoniously wiped out.

        Yes genuine question. Even if it is by product as in you are only using skin once meat industry throws away. I know there are people who eat kangaroo meat. For approximation see below answer from ozbaggins - done the math

        • GnarlyKnuckles on 18/10/2021 - 16:30

          Dude … look at the picture above the 'Go to Deal' text. Each rug is clearly the pelt of one roo. Or do you perhaps think they cut up a bunch of roo skins, then stitch them back together to make it look like it's the pelt of one roo?!? lol … you're a crack up Champ.

        • GnarlyKnuckles on 18/10/2021 - 22:21

          Waters, you are simplistically ignoring the fact that these roos would be culled regardless of whether their carcasses were used for meat and pelts. In fact, at least in Victoria (but not South Australia) they used to be left on the ground unused, because outdated red-tape prevented them from being used for anything. I believe that was changed relatively recently, and I think that change was long overdue.

          Your 'issue' with roo rugs implies that you think that was a bad change. I.e. you preferred it when the culled roos were left on the ground unused. Is that right? Or have you simply posted an erroneous objection to roo rugs, when in fact what you object to is all roo culling? Even when it is for environmental reasons, and often for the greater good of the localised population of roos as a whole? If you are in fact against all roo culling, mount an intelligent argument stating why. Don't erroneously go after the guy at the end of the line selling the pelts. As the kids would say:

          Hate the game, not the player.

          • evian on 19/10/2021 - 20:04

            @GnarlyKnuckles: I have equal hate for all who participate in animal cruelty. Imagine the outcry if I suggested skinning you dog.

    Are these a byproduct or a primary product?

      What do you mean? These are made from roos that are culled for environmental (and sometimes animal welfare) reasons. The meat is used, and the fur is used. How do you determine whether the meat is the 'primary product' or whether the fur is? Is it based on which sells for the most money?

          I know exactly what it means. I told you exactly what the PRIMARY reason is that they are killed for. Given that this primary reason is not for the meat or the fur (or indeed, any tangible 'product'), your question is to an extent unanswerable. Hence I asked you to clarify what you meant by it. It seems that you are not able to do so.

    • GnarlyKnuckles on 18/10/2021 - 14:32

      Here's a philosophical question for you xtk. Would you rather be farmed in a cage for 3 years, then crammed into a truck for a long journey somewhere, then led into a slaughterhouse, then shot, or would you rather lead a blissful free-range existence for up to 10 years, then get shot 'in the field' in the blink of an eye by an expert marksman with a sniper rifle who you never even saw?

      If you think about it for about 10 seconds, you'll get where I'm going with that question.

      • pizzaguy on 18/10/2021 - 14:44

        • GnarlyKnuckles on 19/10/2021 - 05:08

          Yo pizza-man, re:

          'How about just living a life for whatever number of years without having to have that shitty options you just listed?'

          Your scenario relies upon a ludicrously fanciful/unrealistic situation in which all Australians unanimously decide that they are never going to eat meat again. I don't think anyone seriously believes that that is ever going to happen; even you.

          My philosophical/hypothetical question relates directly to the real world that we all actually live in; not fanciful utopian ideals that are about as removed from reality as Puff the Magic Dragon.

            @GnarlyKnuckles: Cool, I bet people in feudalistic systems hundreds years ago would think the same about their 6-day work weeks and 90% "tax" to their owners. Perhaps they wouldn't, had they seen better, had access to knowledge etc. And yet, today you study, work less, live in the richest of the nations.

            I get your thinking, I sometimes feel like that too. But I don't say such sad and bland things out loud.

      • noscopedJFK on 18/10/2021 - 14:54

        The third option is the animal lives carefree for the entirety of its existence. Not every option has to end in abrupt death.

        That said, this is probably a good deal to minimise wastage for those already being culled.

      • bargaino on 18/10/2021 - 15:00

        farmed in a cage for 3 years, then crammed into a truck

        Are you under the impression this happens in Australia? Closest thing is battery-chooks for eggs.

        • GnarlyKnuckles on 19/10/2021 - 05:27

          Ah yes, it was a philosophical question, but I fully take your point on that manic. I think there's still sow stalls operating in Australia, though they are thankfully being phased out (and the pigs aren't in them for 3 years), and there's defo' still battery hens as you say; but again the battery chooks are killed before they have been in those cages for 3 years. Re other scenarios that currently operate in Australia, I guess it comes down to your definition of a 'cage'. Many pigs are not raised under what I would call 'free range' conditions; rather I would call their quarters cages. Not exactly 'sow stalls', but certainly not 'paddocks'/'free-range'.

          The 'crammed into a truck' thing defo' still applies here in Australia, as do the other things I alluded to. Then there's the whole 'live export' abomination, which I simply cannot believe Australia still undertakes … but that was not part of my initial rant si I won't go there for now …

          What I was ultimately getting at was that rather than any of the scenarios I've alluded to above (extended close confinement, battery hen-type conditions, sow stalls, slaughter-houses, live road transport, live transport by sea, etc.), I would rather live a free and natural existence into adulthood, then get shot dead instantly in my natural environment.

          The animals in the former scenarios potentially undergo immeasurable and protracted suffering, as opposed to almost no suffering at all. Thant was the crux of my philosophical question.

            yep. That one really bothers me.

            Agree on your point. Nature is brutal, "red in tooth and claw", hunger, disease, injury, parasites and constant fear of predators.

            But sympathy for other species is a Western Cultural Construct. Who are we to tell other cultures what values to have?
            Islamic abattoirs are not torturing animals for fun, just indifferent to their suffering, as is all of nature except us.

            All we can do is but meat and skins from Australian sources, where we know the animals were treated decently.

      They sell feral possum meat from Un Zud at Leo's supermarket in Heidelberg, Victoria. They label it 'Possum'. It sells well, probably because it's delicious. They also sell wild roo and wallaby, and farmed emu and croc, among other such things.
