At Bay - Sticking up a Boomer, 1850. Kangaroo-hunting in Australia:a party of men and dogs have come up with the kangaroo - or, as it is called, are sticking up a boomer'...The native name for the Kangaroo is boomer hence the boomerang...the dogs closed with him, and we came up as he stood at bay. He was a noble creature, and fought desperately with his fore-paws; a single kick with his hind-feet would have laid any one of the dogs dead. It was a cruel sight to see the poor beast struggling hard for life beneath the bright sky, in his own free deserts; his large and eloquent eyes filled with tears, and his head and shoulders covered with blood...In size it equals a sheep, some of the largest weighing 1401b.; and the flesh is represented by those who have tasted it as being a little like venison. The tail is said to make rich and savoury soup...'. From Illustrated London News, 1850. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
