Kangaroo sinews
Kangaroo sinews.
In order to obtain the sinew from the tail of a kangaroo, the skin around the second or third joint is cut through, and the bones disjointed by the teeth; these loosened joints are drawn out with all the sinews attached to them. These sinews appear much like a skein of white silk, and are of great strength.
