Baby kangaroos (joeys) are the size of a jellybean when they are born. When first born, they are less than 2cm in length and weigh around half a gram.
A baby kangaroo (joey) when born is blind, hairless and completely helpless, clawing its way by instinct from the birth canal of the mother kangaroo up to and into the pouch. The joey then latches onto a teat inside the pouch, which then swells inside mouth of the joey, basically securing it from falling or being jolted from the pouch.
The joey then continues to form and grow, and according to the different species, reaches different sizes by adulthood.
There is no such thing as a koala cub. A baby koala is called a joey. When first born, a Joey is about the size of a bean, less than 2cm long and weighing about half a gram.
Red Kangaroos are the largest of the kangaroos. The Red Kangaroo averages 1.6 metres tall. Accounts of sizes greater than this are not uncommon, with some large males reportedly reaching approximately 2 metres (6.6 ft).
The weight of an adult kangaroo depends entirely on the species.
The largest of the kangaroos, the Red Kangaroo, can weigh from 18kg (39 lb) up to 90 kilograms (198 lb) for very large specimens. The male is heavier, and tends to weigh an average of 65 kg (143 lb).
The next size of kangaroos are the Eastern Grey kangaroo, which ranges from 30 - 60 kg (66 lb - 132 lb) and the Western Grey kangaroo, which ranges from 28 - 54kg (61 lb - 119 lb).
Bear in mind there are numerous smaller species of "kangaroo". Wallabies, for example, come in various sizes, and weigh between 2kg and 20kg (4.4 lb and 44 lb). Pademelons and rat-kangaroos including the tiny musky-rat kangaroo are all classifications within the general term known as "kangaroo", and they are all much smaller and lighter.
