Hi All
I came across this again and thought I might share it with the group.

I live in Qld and drive past Middlemount every week. The website says its a hot spot but its nothing compared to what it was 20 years ago. Roo populations have defenetly decreased

They misspelt Baldivis :-) Not Baldavis. This is a southern suburb of Perth. Everyone worries about the wildlife on the roads when you hit the big northwest, and yet, our worst places are down in the southwest. Massive mobs of greys getting fat and breeding. I live surrounded by national park at the north end of the midwest, and our biggest risk area is right in town, big mobs of greys, coming in to feed on lawns and the oval.

If I remember rightly, there was a horse killed on the freeway a year or so ago but that does not make it the worst spot.

Most kangaroos I have seen was Cunnamulla
Emus Glendambo (One less now -they do make a considerable noise when hitting the bull bar).
Also a few camels near Glendambo.

Emu’s I have been told are one of the dummest animals out their, I have been told of a number of them running into to side of vehicles while there where driving down roads.

Yes! Happened to me in a small Honda about 15 years ago in the Flinders ranges. I was driving on a dirt track, encountered a gaggle of them and slowed right down. One of them was silly enough to run into me and damage the door. It ran away and seemed OK. For some reason I had expected them to be smart enough to avoid a collision.

Has there been an increase in the number of roadkill as this news story says? August is already over. They wrote that a 15% increase was expected.
