Hi All,

Just posting this on the WA section of the forums incase people havent heard about it.

http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/story/0,21...896-948,00.html

A PERTHNOW reader has offered a $1000 reward for information leading to the arrest of a young man filmed viciously attacking a kangaroo.

The reader posted a message on PerthNow and also contacted the RSPCA offering the reward - and calling on other West Australians to boost the reward fund.

Several other PerthNow readers have pledged $500 amounts.

RSPCA spokesman Richard Barry said: "A member of the public has called to offer a reward for information leading to the capture of the individual seen beating the kangaroo.

"The offer is $1000 and the individual has called on other members of the public to do the same."

Hunt launched after video sent to Perth RSPCA

The RSPCA has launched a nationwide hunt for a youth shown beating a kangaroo unconscious in a sickening online video which was sent to its Perth office.

This disturbing footage was sent to the RSPCA in Perth and shows the youth using kick boxing-style attacks on the kangaroo as his friend laughs while filming.

Police say the man is shown pulling the kangaroo towards him as he uses his knee to deliver a blow to the animal’s chest.

The youth swings his punches into the animal’s face as the animal struggles to remain standing.

The final punch knocks the kangaroo to the ground where it appears to lay unconscious. It is not known if the animal survived.

The RSPCA refused to release the video in full, due to its graphic nature and fears it could spark copy-cat attacks. It also wanted to prevent the video being permanently posted onto other websites.

Wildlife expert Steve McLeod said the animal was probably injured before being attacked.

"The kangaroo is very disoriented,'' he said.

``It is very unusual for a kangaroo to fight like that as they invariably flee.

``I would hazard a guess that it has been knocked over by the car and injured. Certainly it has been stunned in some way."

The RSPCA across Australia has united in a nationwide appeal to catch the youths involved.

"We are appealing to every media outlet in Australia to help us track down the cowards behind the vicious attack on this kangaroo," WA RSPCA spokesman Richard Barry said.

As you can see - its sickening that some individual would hurt an animal. The link has pictures and video of the news reel. If anyone knows the person, contact the Police asap. I dont usually post here, but as an animal lover, I cant stand to see this happening. Worse is that, people like this moron grow up to be rapists, murders and thugs who prey on those that cant defend themselves.

The video is terrible - the guy holding the camera deserves a good beating with a cro-bar as well.

What is this country coming to.......shame that parents do not teach kids good old fashioned values.

Thats just plain disturbing...

Put that c*nt in the same cage as a full grown tiger, bear or just a large police dog then we see how tough he is...

Probably sh*t himself 10 times before gets eaten... for good.

oh and just because it was sent to WA rspca, doesn't mean it happened here..

That could be true Kylie - and im not trying to impose that WA is the only state that has morons like this. I have also posted this in the Vic section. My main aim is to get the word out, and perhaps people can keep an eye out for this fellow - its the only way justice will be done.

For example, its like the dog that was put in a baby basket and then trampled on by a group of teenagers in NSW a few years ago. I wrote to the police commissioner expressing my disgust and anger at it (i dont know what happened in the end, but the commissioner did write back saying that they are looking into it). I get the feeling that if the public dont take laws into their own hands, then cruelty to animals will keep going and soon those same people will be targetting people - it could be our parents, grand parents, significant other, kids, nephews, nieces etc.

I suppose I should post this news in other areas of the forum as well i.e NSW, SA etc - but will probably get warnings for multiple posts.

police dogs are god damn SCARY!!

i do all the garden and lawn maintenance for maylands police academy (where they keep all the dogs)

i see what they are capable of... :P

put him in the ring with a professional boxer... bare knuckle.

LOL

John Hopoate FTW!!!

Sick twisted f**kers. I hope they get hung from the town gates by their balls.

I'd prefer the WA Police catch the fks that broke into my house on the weekend.

I like animals and all but FFS, THE POLICE NEED TO FORGET ABOUT THIS SHT AND ABOUT HOONS ETC AND START MAKING PEOPLE FEEL SAFE IN THE FKNG HOMES AGAIN.

Agrees with Bubba..

As far as I'm concern, anyone caught red-handing stealing in any capacity, should have a big 'T' branded on their hand. That way, every person that they come across, knows full well they are in the company of a THIEF!

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
