I just knew carp were going to make that list.
I have a couple rogue carp hanging around my swamp and they're always causing trouble.
Roos are native.

We are NOT letting you have one!!!
It's okay gustav. I have a 'contact'.
I'll see what I can do. Black market roo is a little gamier than regular roo, but still makes a fine chili.
What? Pigs are only number four on your list? And behind rabbits? We're just going to have to try harder.
it's hard to find good 'swill' these days; except 'here' of course, pages full of it!
Just look at all the joy those bunnies have given us!
Some of the others, wellll......
Have a bit of treat kibble Margo - on me!

Victorians have been officially warned to expect a mouse epidemic. Soon.
What's the damn problem? Feral pigs, cane-toads, wild-dogs and foaming-at-the-mouth camels not GOOD ENOUGH for you mob?
Try that up in the Top End. "Yes, I know a raving horde of 6 metre salties have eaten half the population of the North lately, but back in Melbourne we HAD a plague of mice!".
Mr Stillwater
We haven't had the mouse plague YET ... We've been warned that we're going to have one! Apparently they destroy & plunder with abandon!
