Ausfag, the hunting itself is great, we have a lot of feral animals which are fair game, pigs, goats, camels, foxes, rabbits, cats and in some locations deer but where I live hunting on crown/state land is prohibited so all hunting is done on private land, luckily some of the stations around have a million acres or more to hunt on. It's definitely not something you bring up in general conversation though, unless your intent is to twist knickers.
The licensing process is time consuming and fairly expensive, usually 8 weeks minimum assuming you already have someone willing to provide you hunting land and by the time you've finished the app, bought a safe etc etc you're looking at 1k. Similarly handguns are completely prohibited for use in hunting, they're for range use only, semi autos/pumps are also out unless you have a professional game culling license or own primary production land.
