If you want to cut up a pair of gloves you can get Kangaroo gloves from Cabellas. They are expensive --about $40 but the best gloves I've ever had.

Check with John at American Leathers. He may have some kangaroo leather scraps left over after he made kangaroo leather shooting gloves.

Yes Jim we have the same problem here on the edge of Bairnsdale. But my main problem is I have three wombats on the property, fences mean nothing to them they just go straight through them or push the fence up while going under. At least the roos jump the fences. Just to let our USA friends know, kangaroos are a protected species in a number of Australian states and so at times reach plague proportions causing havoc to fences and major damage to cars when they are hit on our roads. But their meat is very lean and great to eat. The leather produced from their skins is one of the strongest in the world and makes long lasting tabs, motorcycle gloves, shoes etc. Google it, it's easy to obtain.

Check any falconry supply dealer. Mike's falconry, Davidson's falconry and Northwoods limited are a few. They'll all have kangaroo
