I found this out from an episode of QI on BBC2, but found it interesting and amusing at the same time.
At the moment the world cattle population is responsible for a considerable amount of methane to be released into the atmosphere contributing to global warming.
However, because of slightly different bacteria in the stomach, the Kangaroo marsupial doesn't actually flatulate.
Scientists are experimenting to see if this Kangaroo bacteria can be introduced into cattle to stop farty cows.

Because of my nickname I am interested in this subject (and so is my girlfriend) but are you sure this was'nt broadcast on April 1.
Any de-winding formula or secrets gratefully received.

I wonder if eating a KangaCow-burger would affect our flatulence as well?
Trouble with windy bowels?
Try a Kanga-Cow!
Get your Kanga-Cow fast,
and make blasts a thing of the past!
Eating on the go leading to leaks?
Kanga-Cow stops the squeaks!
