Kangaroos have been eating grass in sports fields, backyards and roadsides in the Australian capital Canberra. Canberra residents have taken to social media with images of the jumping animals exploring outside their usual habitats. But beyond the cute photo opportunities, the hungry kangaroos are at risk of dying on the roads as their feeding times coincide with the rush hour.
Canberra has more than 30 nature reserves, with most hosting hundreds of Eastern Grey Kangaroos, and it is not unusual to see them in the reserves or on the roads or yards nearby, Australian Capital Territory (ACT) Parks and Conservation Service Director Daniel Iglesias told CNN. “Canberra is experiencing a perfect storm of hardship for its kangaroos. New records have been set in Canberra for very cold, frosty nights this winter. This, coupled with very dry conditions with very little rain at all in June and July, means there is very little food for kangaroos,” Iglesias said.
Driving in areas with large populations of kangaroos is warned as they can jump in front of moving vehicles without warning. “Get to know where kangaroos hang out and avoid them, or slow down, especially during peak movement periods of dusk and dawn,” Iglesias said.“People should also take good care of their dogs as it can be very stressful for kangaroos to be chased by dogs and the dogs also put themselves at risk of being harmed.”
The government carries out a law, which says it is aimed at lessening the animals’ impact on ecosystems and threats to some local species. It is said that 3,253 kangaroos have been removed from the city but that there are still “tens of thousands” in the city. Human residents still dominate in the capital, which has a population of around 400,000, but across Australia there are double the number of kangaroos to humans.
