About This Item

The original Skippy's Sac has returned!

The original "Skippy's Sac" was presumed lost in April 2006, so a replacement sac was launched with the replacement tag. Since that time, the original sac resurfaced! To avoid conflicting log entries, a new tag was attached to the old sac by a kind cacher and Sack-O-Roo was born.

Kangaroo scrotum pouches are made from the scrotum of male kangaroo, and are said to be very lucky. All those in possession of one are assured a long life, happiness and healthy children. Their power will have no effect however if the pouch is kept empty, so for this reason we've included a $2 Australian coin inside to keep the luck flowing.

What? Don't believe it? Find the travel bug and see for yourself. The "pouch" is made of genuine leather, and has NO SEAMS! This one is a small specimen, but you can get them large enough to hold golf balls.

While kangaroos are subject to Australian Government protection, they need to be constantly harvested to control their numbers owing to their prolific breeding habits. This culling is controlled, and virtually every piece of the kangaroo is utilized, from the fur to the meat, and yes, even the scrotum.
