The question if conserved currents can be sensibly defined in supersymmetric minisuperspaces is investigated in this essay. The objective is to employ exclusively the differential equations obtained {\em directly} from the Lorentz and supersymmetry quantum constraints. The ``square-root'' structure of N=1 supergravity is the motivation to contemplate this tempting idea. However, it is shown that such prospect is not feasible but for some very simple scenarios. Otherwise, conserved currents (and consistent probability densities) can be derived from subsequent Wheeler-DeWitt like equations obtained from the supersymmetric algebra of constraints.
