There's few situations where someone might stop for a dead kangaroo, or really any other wildlife. Either because they see it's still alive, or because they're checking to see if it might be a female with live young.
If it's clear that it's dead, nobody is going to stop. On a road, in WA, in summer -- yeah you're going to smell that for a long ways. Scavangers will deal with it pretty quickly, anyway.
- LarryMullins 4y agoDo people ever eat roadkill kangaroos? I know it's fairly common for people to eat roadkill deer in America, if they know the kill is fresh.
- paranoidrobot 4y agoEver? Possibly. I've not heard of it though. Some Aboriginal communities will hunt and eat Kangaroo. Hunting Kangaroo for sport/'population control' is a thing in some areas. But the meat is usually either wasted or fed to animals. I understand that with wild Kangaroo you have to worry about parisites. You can get Kangaroo meat at the supermarket though.
