Australian teen 'deliberately' ran down, killed 20 kangaroosThe sight of dead kangaroos by the roadside is not uncommon in New South Wales state, where about 90 percent of car crashes involve collisions with the animals. SYDNEY: An Australian teenager has been charged over the deaths of 20 kangaroos, which he allegedly mowed down with his truck in a killing spree that lasted an hour. The dead kangaroos, including two joeys, were found littered over roads in Tura Beach, 450 kilometres south of Sydney, on Sunday morning. At least three other joeys were orphaned as a result of the disturbing attack, according to wildlife rescue group WIRES. The group said it was "horrified" by the "apparent act of cruelty", with the three surviving joeys now requiring round-the-clock care.
