Following the stories of several urban kangaroos, Kangaroo Mob reveals how the eastern gray kangaroo population around Australia’s capital city manage to survive the city, and documents the ongoing debate on how best to manage them - leading to a government policy of culling and an emotional public dispute between those who support reducing kangaroo numbers, and those who are appalled by the prospect of killing this beloved Australian icon.
