Road Kill (Day 8)

​ A sad fact is the number of animals I see dead on the road. I have literally seen hundreds of kangaroos that have been struck by cars or trucks. It is so sad some are still alive all I can do is move them off the road into shade if there is any. In the extreme heat the stench of the rotting carcasses is almost unbearable. I rubbed my A535 under my nose to kill the smell. I never expected to see so many kangaroos. I have also seen foxes, snakes, wild pigs, hawks, eagles, possums, rabbits, wallabies even dingoes (they look like an orange dog) . Did you know the Austraian outback camel population is the largest in the world. Luckily no dead camels yet, but stay tuned my goal is to ride one!
