I think you mean "legal" to shoot/cull.
So,'ll take a guess... They are not a "Native" to Tasmania so they are just like a rabbit or fox anywhere else....Vermin....
Shoot on sight...
Wow... I think I might buy a "Tacticool" rifle so I can go kill vermin.... Bloody Kid's.....

If you mean the Forester Kangaroo in Tas, it was all but wiped out and is now managed closely. Permit and tag system for limited conservation and agriculture culling. They would still be copping a flogging by crop farmers.
Has a cool name too:
Macropus giganteus tasmaniensis

In actual fact you aren't allowed to use products from protected species, there is no game licence for brush tailed possum only a crop protection permit and associated commercial harvesters licence which allows you to sell to a registered dealer.
Even though wallaby aren't protected as such you still need a commercial licence for anything other than personal use.
Whilst I don't think you are going to get pinned for tying flies off roadkill just make sure it is a brushy as I know of three people that were prosecuted successfully for tying flies off a ring tail possum.
Same goes for selling trophies, deer heads are not allowed to be sold and there have been successful prosecutions in the past, and to be fair they offended only through ignorance.

I guess it's like Roo?
And that's pretty good IMO.

Interesting, might take a trip there soon then. $29.30 sounds like a fine deal
