The dingo and foxes are the main animals that eat rock wallabies. Wedge-tailed eagles and other Birds of Prey are also likely to swoop down and grab unwary rock-wallabies, as these types of wallabies are more likely to be out on exposed rock faces.
The dingo and foxes are the main predators that eat rock wallabies. Wedge-tailed eagles and other birds of prey also feed on various rock-wallaby species, finding them fairly easy prey, as these types of wallabies are more likely to be out on exposed rock faces.
Wallabies are marsupials, and smaller members of the kangaroo family.
The only perditor that wallibies have are dingo's and humans
Wallabies are herbivores, so therefore they do not have prey. They eat grasses and other vegetation.
Animals that can be found in the bushland habitat as some wallabies may be:
wallabies get eaten by snakes and dingos.

Wallabies are herbivores. They do not have prey.
Yes. Brush tailed rock wallabies, and other types of rock wallabies, are most commonly prey to foxes, an introduced species. they are also subject to predation by wedge-tailed eagles, which swoop upon them unawares while they are on exposed rock faces. Dingoes, dogs and feral cats also prey on rock wallabies.
The Thylacine or Tasmanian Tiger (Thylacinus cynocephalus), was a carnivorous marsupial, or dasyurid. It preyed on native animals such as wallabies, wombats, possums, birds and other prey smaller than itself.The Thylacine sometimes scavenged for food, and was known to feed on the carcasses of rabbits and wallabies.
Enemies of the wallaby include birds of prey such as the wedgetail eagle, which can often be observed swooping down on colonies of various kinds of rock wallabies when they are exposed on the bare rock surfaces. Other predators of young wallabies include carpet pythons, whilst injured wallabies fall prey to dingoes and foxes. Wild dogs are always a major threat.
The major human activity which is a threat to wallabies is habitat clearing for the purpose of building or farming. Another human activity which has caused problems is the introduction of foreign species such as rabbits (which eat the wallabies' food) and fixes (which prey on joeys).
The dingo and foxes are the main predators of rock wallabies. Wedge-tailed eagles and other birds of prey are also major predators of various rock-wallaby species, as these types of wallabies are more likely to be out on exposed rock faces.
First response for all wallabies when they hear danger is to flee. They are agile creatures, able to bound away quickly, and negotiate rocky and hilly slopes, which often gives them advantage over the prey that pursue them.

Wallabies are grouped according to the habitat in which they live, so there are swamp wallabies, brush wallabies, and rock wallabies.Swamp wallabies inhabit fairly flat bushland areas which are reasonably open, unlike the brush wallaby which prefers more closed forest, with denser undergrowth. Rock wallabies are especially suited to rocky hillsides and mountainsides, including open rock faces. Unfortunately, this is one of the reasons why certain species of rock wallaby are so vulnerable - wedgetail eagles and other birds of prey take advantage of the wallabies when they are out on the rocky, bare hillsides, readily swooping in for an easy meal.
There is no separate species known as the white Bennett's wallaby. Any white wallaby is a mutation, an albino, and ever more susceptible to predators than other wallabies, because it stands out easily. Introduced predators such as foxes and feral cats are the main danger to wallabies, while natural predators such as dingoes, eagles, hawks and pythons also prey on wallabies, including Bennett's wallaby.
Wallabies have colouring that enables them to camouflage naturally within their habitat. Whether they are rock wallabies, swamp wallabies or brush wallabies, they tend to blend in with their environment.
Wallabies are native to Australia, where different species are found in a variety of biomes. Wallabies are actually grouped according to the biome or habitat in which they live, so there are swamp wallabies, brush wallabies, and rock wallabies.Swamp wallabies inhabit fairly flat bushland biomes which are reasonably open, unlike the brush wallaby which prefers more closed bushland, with denser undergrowth. Rock wallabies are especially suited to rocky hillsides and mountainsides, including open rock faces.
