FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Understanding ShuRoo

The first thing to remember is ShuRoo is a deterrent, NOT A FORCEFIELD. It has been specifically designed and thoroughly tested over the past 20 years to assist keep the roos away from your car, truck, 4WD or bike. Kangaroos are wild, flighty animals and can be counted on to act as such, with the only difference being that ShuRoo alerts them to your presence as you are approaching. This allows both you and the roo ample time to be able to avoid physical contact.

The following Frequently Asked Questions should answer all your queries regarding ShuRoo.

Why does a ShuRoo work?

Under normal circumstances, kangaroos do not hear the low frequency sounds that an approaching vehicle creates. ShuRoo projects a high frequency sound pattern through a continually changing range of frequencies in front of and to the sides of the car. Because kangaroos use high frequency for warnings of impending danger, they take avoiding action. Or if they are ”road tame” and off the road, they will simply watch you pass.

Why does high frequency sound work?

In the wild, kangaroos are always listening for approaching danger. If you try to creep up on them, they always look in your direction. This is because their high frequency hearing capacity is much greater than ours. For example, the slight sound of a twig snapping is much louder to the kangaroo and/or wallaby than it is to humans.

Is ShuRoo a whistle?

No. ShuRoo cannot be compared with cheap, air-activated whistles. Whistles operate on a single frequency and have no ability to project sound forward and to the side of the vehicle. They simply become just another noise around the vehicle and can become inoperative due to bugs and dirt entering the venturi without the driver knowing. There is no warning if the device is inoperative.

How far down the road does ShuRoo project?

Approximately 400 meters ahead and approximately 50 metres on each side of the vehicle. High frequency sound is like your car lights - the sound pattern does not go around corners or over crests, so use commonsense when traveling in highly vegetated areas or winding roads.
