‘Bush’ Menus Have Activists Hopping Mad

SYDNEY, Australia —  Animal rights advocates dumped a dead kangaroo on the doorstep of a fashionable restaurant Friday to protest plans to make dishes of the national symbol.

Members of the National Kangaroo Campaign group left the carcass outside Riberries Restaurant, which specializes in indigenous cuisine, known as “bush tucker.”

Last month, the New South Wales state government legalized kangaroo meat for human consumption, although it will be several weeks before the meat actually goes on sale.
