Vegan dog food?!?!?!?!

Went through a vegan/grain heavy diet for awhile then offered the option of adding in one of the following types of animal protein: duck, pork, fish and kangaroo. We went with kangaroo, and he's now eating like a champ.

Where, might I ask, does one obtain Kangaroo meat? And is it fit for human consumption lol

I hear it is commonly eaten down under. Like venison is here, or so I've heard.

It's a prescription (read $$$$!) dog food that has kangaroo meat as it's main protein source. We get the kibble, I think it's a Eukanuba vet product.
