Details for Wallaby

• Wallaby

  Wallabies are marsupials native to Australia and New Guinea, closely related to kangaroos but generally smaller in size. They have powerful hind legs for hopping, strong tails for balance, and soft, dense fur. Their size varies considerably between species, ranging from about 30 cm (12 inches) to over 1 meter (3.3 feet) in height. Wallabies are primarily herbivorous, feeding on grasses, leaves, and other vegetation. They inhabit a wide range of environments, from rocky outcrops to dense forests. While some species are common, many are threatened by habitat loss and introduced predators.
