Kangaroo Protection Act of 2025

This legislation aims to prohibit various commercial activities involving kangaroos and kangaroo products within the United States. It specifically defines "kangaroo" to include four distinct species—the western grey , eastern grey , common wallaroo , and red kangaroo —or any part thereof, and "kangaroo product" as any item composed in whole or in part of a kangaroo. The bill makes it unlawful to knowingly bring kangaroos into the U.S. for commercial purposes, possess them with intent to sell, or sell them. Additionally, it prohibits the introduction, manufacture, sale, trade, advertisement, transport, or distribution of kangaroo products in interstate commerce. Violations of these prohibitions carry significant penalties, including fines of up to $10,000, imprisonment for up to one year, or both, with each violation constituting a separate offense. The Secretary of Commerce is tasked with issuing regulations to implement these provisions, which will take effect 180 days after the bill's enactment.
