The popular destination took to social media to lay down the facts

The Kangaroo Creek Farm has caught the attention of 91Ƶinternet trolls91Ƶ who have been spreading rumours about the farm91Ƶs ethical treatment of animals.

The farm91Ƶs pending move from Lake Country to Kelowna, intended to give the animals more space, has been a highly followed news topic in the Okanagan.

Earlier this week, The Farm91Ƶs Facebook page addressed 91Ƶfake news91Ƶ that the farm has been slaughtering the kangaroos once they cease to be cute.

91ƵAll our animals have names. I have personally nursed all the joeys you see out in the field. Do you really think I would let your child come and visit that animal and then slaughter it at the end of the season? These trolls need to give their collective heads a shake,91Ƶ said the Farm91Ƶs Facebook post.
