Kangaroo Health Benefits
Kangaroo is a lean meat with less than 2% fat, making it a healthier red meat option. It is also high in protein, essential B vitamins, minerals such as zinc, iron and omega 3 fats and omega 6 fatty acids. Kangaroo contains double the amount of iron to beef and triple that of chicken and pork. Eating wild meats such as kangaroo is also better for your health as you can be sure there are no added growth hormones, antibiotics or chemicals.
Kangaroo and Sustainability
Overall, eating Kangaroo meat is more sustainable and better for the environment than most other meats commonly eaten in Australia today. Indigenous to the Australian environment, they can get by on eating a variety of indigenous scrub and do not rely on the production of grain. Likewise, as they are wild animals they do not need to be farmed in the conventional way, which requires land clearing and the destruction of habitat.
