Acknowledgements

This report is the culmination of field work by many and the long standing previous efforts of others to expose the truths about kangaroo harvesting. There are too many to name all. Thank you in particular to Mark Pearson and his team of field workers and Angie Stephenson and her team, all from Animal Liberation NSW, for obtaining much necessary data and deciding to commission this report.

Nicky Sutterby has provided invaluable information about harvesting rates and population densities. Dr Des Sibraa’s contribution to hygiene and carcass analysis has been extremely valuable. Thank you to Maryland Wilson of the Australian Wildlife Protection Council and Pat O’Brien of the National Kangaroo Protection Coalition for their tenacious work and wealth of information about kangaroo issues past and present.

Thanks also to our highly reliable associate in Moscow, Natalie Silakoff. Finally, this report would not have been possible without the financial support of Voiceless.
