Real question: are they just...everywhere? I've seen the crossing signs (and the one hit by a car in "Talk to Me") and have been curious ever since if they are just like giant squirrels or something and you see them in neighborhoods and suburbs, or is it really only farther out in rural areas?
I grew up in the capital of Australia, Canberra. We have kangaroo culls regularly and our school ovals, parks and sports fields have kangaroo poo everywhere. I have sent my friends in Europe videos of kangaroos in my suburb just bouncing along a fence line looking for an exit. People hit them on our main roads when driving at certain times of the day/night.
I personally don't like it. It can be hard to cook. Easy to overcook and yeah I can't get past the visual to even bother with eating a Skippy. But in saying that I encourage anyone who likes it to eat roo. They are considered a pest to humans so Id rather their meat and hide are used for something other than dog food. I feed my dogs roo but have for 30 years. Eating it only became popular in the last couple of decades. Before that no one would eat them.
