What great initiative, lots of helicopters could be used on nature tours watching these exciting animals. First 90 Kangaroos released in Wyoming ? County 10? (http://county10.com/first-90-kangaroos-released-in-wyoming/)

Watching?
The article hints that their main purpose is to be hunted and shot. Koalas will also be introduced, but without the right sort of eucalypts this will be a short introduction.

What a classic! I wonder how many Americans 100% believe the story, and are booking hunting tours right now! :)
And now theey are causing problems in neighboring Utah:

The best April Fool's so far this year to me, was Parks Canada... As some will know, it's Canada's 150th b-day this year and to celebrate, Parks Canada dropped the entrance fee to all national parks this year. Here amongst the Rockies of Alberta and BC, call outs for heli-rescue have climbed dramatically. To help with the increased tourist volume expected, Parks Canada rescue announced a site where you could go and pre-book your rescue date.
Just pick the time you will be traversing the hills, when you expect to need help, go register said time, and the Parks Canada boys will ensure to have a 407 or 350 available for you!!!!
And they said the gov't had no sense of humor!!!!:D:}
Clearly one of them got too closee to my family, and ended up stuffed in the basement:
