Slippery_Weasel 460 Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I can see the headlines now "Well known author breaks into Zoo to photograph poo." Think of the scandal ? OR, JD are you telling us there's Wallabies in the wild ? How do they run ? There are a few sustainable colonies around the UK. there is an island in one of the scottish lochs (cant remember which one), some on the isle of man and also allegedly some in the peak district (although I dont think there have been any sightings for a while) There will be others as well am sure Edited to Add: Loch Lomond, the island is Inchtavannach 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

J Darcy 5,871 Posted January 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I wouldn't eat one. And yes, they're wild. I've photographed them quite a few times. With the help of my friends. They are very difficult to photograph in the daytime, in the wild. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
