  • Wallabies are native to Australia, where they are found in all of the states, including the island state of Tasmania.
  • Wallabies are grouped according to the habitat in which they live, so there are shrub wallabies, brush wallabies, and rock wallabies. Shrub wallabies inhabit fairly flat bushland areas which are reasonably open, unlike the brushwallaby which prefers more closed forest, with denser undergrowth. Rock wallabies are especially suited to rocky hillsides and mountainsides, including open rock faces.
  • Predators of wallabies include wedgetail eagles and other Birds of Prey.
  • Wallabies are macropods, i.e. members of the kangaroo family, having "long feet" (the name macropod means long footed).
  • Wallabies are marsupials, meaning their joeys are born very undeveloped, then crawl by instinct to the mother's pouch, where they latch onto a teat which swells in their mouth. here they continue their development for many months.
