This would basically replicate Africa in the Australian continent, on a huge scale. They are not sure if they'd leave the kangaroos there or not - always wondered what it'd be like with kangaroos roaming the plains with lions."

    From the article:

    Animals are to be sourced from zoos and parks around the world.

    Wait a minute, the source code for a hippo is available? How come I've never seen this here?
