Now you can save endangered species and eat 'em too! With the Endangered Species Chocolate, that is. Made for Walteria Living by Kathleen Walsh and anita Mothersbaugh (portion of the proceeds will go to World Society for the Protection of Animals).
Each box of chocolate contains a pygmy hippopotamus, mountain gorilla and koala bear: Link
in fact i remember them talking about possible culling of them not all that long ago.
but i live in Victoria too. perhaps they're just numerous here.
I agree with "aware" though. Seems a little odd to see them taxadermy mounted like hunting trophies.
I'm guessing the message its trying to give is: "When these go extinct, this will be the only way you'll ever see these creatures. Stuffed, and mounted on a wall in a museum.")
