When I was in Alice Springs, I was standing in the street down the side of Beau Jangles pub, and this bloke drives at me on a push bike, so I squares up for a barney. He peddalled on by, and the bouncer came over and say 'youawrightmate?' 'That bogun got lashed out and he came back with a knife says he's gonna kill somebody'

Even the blooming cyclists in Oz are out to get you

Yep, and kangaroo steaks are good on the barbecue. But Kangaroo Bourguignon; that really is a treat.

Woman stalked by rogue kangaroo for TWO DAYS before vicious attack which left her with 12-inch scar

It had a go at her Mastiff too.
