Environmental Benefits

The life-stock industry is a major contributor to the lack of biodiversity on earth, accounting for 30% of natural-land usage, and the mass generation of waste products.

Sunset Romance

Kangaroo meat is a low GHG intensive product. This is because ruminant animals such as cattle produce methane during their digestive process owing to stomach fermentation of their main food source, while kangaroos do not.

Hunter with Shotgun

Beef production requires up to 28 times more land than other forms of food-based livestock production and emits five times more greenhouse gases than them as well.

Substituting beef within human diets would mitigate the inefficiencies (land and water requirements) and pollutants associated with growing the crops to feed cattle
