Some areas as described by OP are considered desert in Australia. They're above the Goyder Line* and pretty limited in how they can otherwise be exploited by humans. It's hard for people to live there.

(Whether they should be exploited is a different story.)

Yeah, cattle and sheep farming is hugely destructive to the native Australian environment. But sadly nobody wants to eat kangaroo.

I've eaten it. Tandoori Kangaroo at a restaurant near The Rocks.

Meh.
