Best Answer

Red kangaroos are herbivores. Therefore they do not capture prey.

They live in the most arid parts of Australia, but require a permanent water supply. They will eat just about anything - grasses, weeds, leaves and other plants. In some areas they are considered pests because they eat grass that is intended for cattle. In ideal conditions - such as irrigated pastures or areas with artificial dams or water troughs - they reproduce and multiply very fast and can destroy a lot of good pasture with continuous feeding. This has led to culls in some areas. In their natural habitat, droughts often lead to huge dieoffs, sometimes of whole mobs, by starvation and dehydration.
