Wallabies For Sale

  Love exotics, have had many and have cared and loved them as family member. My dog is more destructive than any exotic I’ve had. I’ve had fox, lynx, serval, raccoons prairie dogs, hedge hogs etc etc. they are extra work and take more time to care for than your house cat, but if you are ready for that, go for it. I don’t believe in eating Bambi or kangaroo or any other animal but many people that enjoy killing animals will comment how cruel it is to keep an animal as a pet. I don’t understand their thought process.

  I see your point but your pencil seriously needs to be sharpened. You have no idea about me or anyone else you are disparaging from having a loving relationship with an animal. Are you this upset about divorces and children being set out to the wind to face this cruel world on their own? Why not get on that bandwagon? Why degrade people who love animals and enjoy their company. I prefer wallaby company 99% of the time better than with the human race. In the USA we can’t own or raise animals native to our country as well but I’m not going to criticize you for owning them. Even if your purpose is to raise them then kill and eat them. People in Australia eat wallabies but we aren’t allowed to raise them for meat or their fur in USA. That’s ok. But don’t get snippy because we eat Bambi because you folks down under eat wallaby stew.

  As i believe what she is saying is very true i am also a wildlife employee Columbus Ohio. And people here buy all kinds of wild life and love them as babies but when they are to big or become what they are wild animals they will get hurt people dont want them than they abuse them neglect them hurt them and lock them up because they can't tame them anymore I see it every minute of the day when you sell them precious babies you don't know what life you're putting them into and what's going to happen to them when they're too big to fit in somebody's home or when they become their natural nature wild animals and get aggressive think about what happens then to that animal that defenseless animal that didn't have a choice to be put in a home he doesn't want it anymore because it's big you shouldn't be selling wild animals it's not right to the animal at all.. As much as they are more amazing she is right its not ok to sell them let them be in the wild there home where they belong not in a home like a domesticated cat or dog. Thank you god blesa

  Kai. You need to calm down. Keeping them in a zoo doesn't really help your side of the story. It's fine to have them as pets. If they are just born its gonna be normal for em. Chill its not no lion or something lol

  In reply to Kai: I think you are being a bit dramatic. Most animals kept as pets aren’t native to where they are. The cats in your homes in Australia aren’t native to there. They were most often bred in captivity to be sold, or given away, as pets. Which is what has happened with the wallaby sold here. Their breeders are professionals that love and care for their animals. The cost of buying here represents that. Not everyone can afford to buy a pet at 2-3,000 bucks. In fact very few can. And it should be noted that from what I’ve seen buyers go through extensive background checks and quality of life checks for the animal prior to sale. So what I read in your comment is that you want all of the wallaby that have been kept, born/bred in the states, and have never lived in the wild to be sent to Australia. Half of them not surviving the trip. The other half put in wildlife reserves to live in the wild (again not THEIR natural habitat since they were born and raised as pets) overrunning the population and capacities of the reserves and their ability to care for the animals. Overpopulating Australia with domesticated wallaby. Consuming natural resources that were already in shorter supply due to the fires earlier this year. I understand your concern. But these animals, generally, are well kept, cared for, loved, and live incredible lives. So you need to tone it down quite a bit. Your chill pill must have been skipped the day you posted this.

  What you are doing is disgusting! I am a member of WIRES (wildlife rescue) in Australia. It is illegal in Australia to keep native animals as pets, AND FOR GOOD REASON! It takes extensive training to become a wildlife carer and is overseen and monitored and and careful records are kept by WIRES and National Parks and Wildlife at all times. Australian native animals belong in the Australian Bush, not in the hands of people that do not know what they are doing in a foreign country! What you are doing is cruel and thoughtless! You are not an animal lover, you are exploiting animals for profit! Grow a conscious and think about what you are doing! I implore true animal lovers to not support this industry and instead voice your objection.
