More Thoughts on Farts

Look what you started JLee, now I’ve got farts on the brain.

I recently learned that kangaroo farts contain no methane gas what-so-ever. Methane gas is the chemical in a fart that makes it so lethal. It is a very lethal substance. Environmentalists don’t want you to know that the leading cause of global warming is methane gas created by flatulence. Cows and pigs, being heavily farmed animals, create more methane than all the cars and factories in the world.

The importance of knowing this odd bit of information about kangaroo farts is that I can recommend the mass farming of kangaroo for meat. If we can convince people to eat more kangaroo meat and less cow meat, we can help the environment. In Australia, kangaroo meat is an available product. Apparently, its a leaner meat than beef and it doesn’t taste half bad (so I have been told).

However, I think farming of kangaroos might be more difficult than that of cows. Cows are a more docile creature. Ever been to a cow farm? I’ve got one down the street from me. The cows just stand around being fenced in by a thin barbed wire barrier. Kangaroos could easily hop over that fence. Last thing I need now is to come home from work and find a kangaroo grazing in the ditch like that one time I found a sheep down the street. That’s when I learned there was a sheep farm just to the west of me.
