But are they local crocs?

Post by: Snoopy on August 12, 2008, 08:53:06 AM
No ~ most of what they sell is imported.

There is a local farm that sells beef from Water Buffalo that they breed themselves, on the hills overlooking the Dee Estuary.

So these eco-friendly kangaroos are jetted in. Or do they migrate in a herd?

Dead, butchered and frozen before they set off from Oz, same as the crocs. The ostriches may be farmed in the UK tho'.
