Where is our raw wallaby meat for pets sourced from?

When you think of a wallaby your mind likely goes straight over the ditch to Australia, but all our wallaby meat is actually sourced from the South Island of New Zealand. Wallaby are noxious pests to New Zealand, they were introduced onto Kawau Island in the 1870s for sport, and for their skins. They were released in South Canterbury where they spread rapidly. They are a serious threat to our native forests - they attack seedlings, thus preventing the re-growth of canopy trees. The primary control measure is poison. The main secondary measure of control is regular shooting. The better the secondary control, the less need there is for poison. We only use accredited hunters who work within a strict program to ensure no overlap (temporally or geographically) with poison drops. This makes our raw wallaby dog food highly sustainable!

RAW WALLABY CAT FOOD

Wallaby are wild, free-ranging animals living off our rich NZ flora, which makes them an incredibly nutritious food for cats and dogs. as a rule of thumb we recommend feeding from at least three different prey species over a week. This ensures a good variety of nutrients in your cat’s diet.
