KC Technically no, you can't hunt roo. Legally, you are supposed to be be a government licensed culler with tags for each roo killed. Not that this keeps people from shooting them.

In my opinion, as more people get taken by crocs, I think it's likely that there will be a government run cull rather than hunting by the public. The Aborigines can take them, but they don't kill enough to affect the population. And you're right, the saltie population is booming.

I have never been interested in shooting feathered game and haven't owned a shotgun since the 70's. Simply no interest there whatsoever.
