In 1901 Milwaukee, boyhood friends William S Harley and Arthur Davidson began building a motorised bicycle from one of Harley’s blueprints. In a 10x15 foot shed in the Davidson’s backyard, with the words “Harley-Davidson Motor Company” scrawled on the door, an American Icon was born. Although the boys’ first motorcycle couldn’t make it up the town’s modest hills, they were not deterred. Work immediately began on an improved second generation model which indeed was the first ‘real’ Harley-Davison, with a bigger engine and looped frame design which lead to define what a modern motorcycle would contain in the years to come. In the following years, the company grew, but dozens of other motorcycle competitiors sprung up (by 1911 there were some 150 makes in the US). World War I saw the debut of motorcycles in combat service, and Harley-Davidson provided about 15,000 machines to the military forces during that war. By 1920, Harley-Davidson was the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. Their motorcycles were sold by dealers in 67 countries. With the Great depression of the 1930s, sales plummeted, and Harley-Davidson turned to other production sources to survive. But survive they did – one of only two American motorcycle manufactures to do so. World War II was instrumental in a significant upturn which continued after the war. The post-war years became tougher, but the company, which had merged with other companies, grew steadily until Japanese imports threatened to put it out of business in the 1980s. But a small group of Harley-Davidson executives bought the company and brought it roaring back to life.

After 15 years of drought, Canberra’s Eastern Grey Kangaroos know that the parks and gardens of Australia’s “bush capital” provide a reliable supply of the juicy grass, but learning to be a street-smart urban ‘roo is tough, with the kangaroos having to negotiate busy roads and avoid cars and dogs. Inevitably their incursion into human habitat causes problems – damage to property and collisions with cars. It’s costing millions and thousands of animals are killed each year. The farmers complain that the ‘roos are eroding farmland and damaging their fences. The ACT Government holds an annual kangaroo cull to reduce animal numbers to “sustainable levels”. Confrontations make international news as the situation arouses passions and polarises opinion. Are the kangaroos pests that need to be eradicated? Or a protected national icon to be saved at all costs? A small team of ecologists, including Don Fletcher and Claire Wimpenny, hope to provide some answers in a 12-month study, which uses GPS collars and satellite technology to track the kangaroos’ nocturnal movements. Amidst the controversy that rages when people are forced to share their backyards with a large wild animal, the scientists discover surprising new behaviour: it appears that the ‘roos are learning to live with people much better than people are learning to live with the ‘roos. Filmed over a year, Kangaroo Mob follows a few remarkable urban ‘roos to provide a warm and entertaining look at what happens when human development encroaches and two very different species are forced to co-exist.
