The red kangaroo is the largest of the marsupials, averaging 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). Their weight ranges from 18 to 90 kg, with the females much smaller than the males.
Red kangaroos vary in the depth of their red colouring. Males can be a strong brick-red colour or a pale red. It has been observed that, in the eastern part of the range of the red kangaroo, females are likely to be more grey in colour, whilst elsewhere within their range both males and females tend to be reddish-brown. They have a black and white mark on the sides of their snout, and a wide white stripe extending from the corner of their mouth to the base of their ear.
Like other kangaroos, Red kangaroos are known for their powerful legs and short forelegs. The forelegs have no thumb.
