Best Answer

The colour of a kangaroo varies depending on the species. There are over 60 species of kangaroo, from the largest, the Red kangaroo and the Grey kangaroo, through many varieties of wallabies, and down to the smallest member of the kangaroo, the musky-rat kangaroo. Because there are so many varieties, their colour varies from reddish-brown to grey, some having darker extremities (feet, nose, tail), such as the wallaroo.

Tree kangaroos tend to have black faces and black paws, are are lighter on their underbelly. Their back is dark, ranging from a vivid dusky orange or rusty red to brown to dark grey, depending on the species.

There is no discernible colour difference between males and females. An exception to this are the antilopine wallaroo and the red kangaroo, where the female tends to be greyer than the male, which is much redder in colour.
