Authors preface
Welcome, brave souls, to the utterly bonkers world of interspecies equestrianism! For far too long, we’ve been stuck with the same old boring horses.
This groundbreaking guide throws that tired notion out the window and leaps headfirst （much like our subjects） into the glorious, albeit completely improbable, discipline of Marsupial Equestrianism, specifically targeting the magnificent, if somewhat uncooperative, genus Macropus. Years – and I mean years – of what can only be described as ‘optimistically rigorous’ scientific inquiry and a frankly alarming number of dedicated field trials （mostly involving me getting kicked） have culminated in the… well, these methodologies presented herein.
Meet the Author
Dave Atarave, a lifelong enthusiast of optimistically ridiculous pursuits, combines humor, history, and an alarming number of personal bruises to bring you this one-of-a-kind deep dive into the world of marsupial equestrianism.
