No. The Nailtail wallaby, like many species of wallaby, lives in colonies.
There are just two species of Nailtail wallabies left - the Bridled Nailtail and the Northern Nailtail. The Northern Nailtail lives in colonies across the northern half of Australia.
The Bridled Nailtail wallaby is restricted to just one area of brigalow scrub near Dingo in central Queensland. There are believed to be about 200 of these wallabies in the area.
The Bridled Nailtail Wallaby - Onychogalea fraenata The Northern Nailtail Wallaby - Onychogalea unguifera
The Crescent Nailtail Wallaby Onychogalea lunata is considered to be probably extinct, although its range is very isolated.

The Bridled Nailtail wallaby is restricted to just one area of brigalow scrub near Dingo in central Queensland. There are believed to be about 200 of these wallabies in the area. Prior to European settlement, the Bridled Nailtail wallaby was found through eastern Australia from Charters Towers in central north Queensland right down to northern Victoria.
There is no common name for the bridled nailtail wallaby. It is occasionally known as "flashjack" or "merrin", but neither of these names is well-known, let alone common.
For the most part, wallabies are solitary, but it depends on the species of wallaby. The Bridled Nailtail Wallaby is solitary, for example, but the Red-necked wallaby is solitary when resting, but grazes in groups.
The Crescent Nailtail wallaby is extinct. Prior to its extinction, it was widespread across the arid and semi-arid scrublands and woodlands of central and southern Australia.
um pretty sure
The bridled nailtail wallaby's favoured foods are non-woody broad-leafed plants, chenopods (low-growing succulents such as pigweed), flowering plants and grasses.
he Crescent Nailtail wallaby became extinct largely due to the introduction of foxes in Australia. Feral cats were also predators of this defenceless animal. In addition, changed fire regimes disturbed its habitat. Rabbits and other non-native herbivores such as stock animals depleted its food source. It was declared extinct in 1956.
Yes. The Bridled Nailtail wallaby is listed as endangered. The main reasons for the Bridled Nailtail wallaby being endangered are: 1. Habitat loss due to land clearing for agriculture, and also introduction of non-native grasses. Drought and bushfire also play a part. 2. Introduction of non-native predators - foxes, feral cats and wild dogs are the greatest threat to the bridled nailtail wallaby. 3. Introduction of European stock animals which eat the wallaby's food. Its favoured foods are non-woody broad-leafed plants, chenopods (low-growing succulents such as pigweed), flowering plants and grasses, all of which are eaten by grazing stock animals such as sheep and cattle, and even rabbits (also introduced).
