The survival of Red kangaroos is not being threatened at all. In 2011, estimated Red kangaroo numbers in Australia were around 11,500,000. Red kangaroos have, in fact, benefitted from agriculture changing their habitat as it has increased their access to water, via dams and irrigation ditches.
The large ears of red kangaroos serve multiple purposes. They help regulate body temperature by dissipating heat, which is crucial for survival in their hot, arid habitats. Additionally, their acute hearing ability allows them to detect predators and other sounds in their environment, enhancing their chances of survival.

Red kangaroos are the largest of all the kangaroo species, so they are probably also the strongest of the kangaroo species.
Kangaroos have a body covering of fur.
The main threat to the survival of the red kangaroo (which is actually quite common) is habitat loss. Red kangaroos' biome typically consists of grasslands, and of the natural grasslands in Australia, less than 4% of the original still remain. However, red kangaroos also live in the bush, or open woodlands, of Australia. Whilst some of these areas have been taken up by agriculture, more of it is utilised by sheep and cattle, and the kangaroos still inhabit this area. Kangaroo populations have enjoyed a resurgence since protective measures have been put in place to limit tree clearing and development.
Yes. Red kangaroos travel in groups known as mobs. These groups can range from just a few kangaroos to herds of hundreds.
