Culling means that kangaroo numbers are reduced by licenced shooters when their numbers threaten farmers' livelihood. Culling is different from harvesting wild kangaroos, which actively uses the kangaroo meat for the consumer market. Culling is quite a controversial topic, because sometimes, inadvertently, kangaroos are left wounded, not killed, and they may take several days to die.
