There is no way to compare a wallaby and a wallaroo in this context. Both serve their place in Australia's ecosystem.
Wallaroos, like other members of the kangaroo family, tend to have just one joey at a time. The wallaroo is unique in that it has the ability to suspend the development of another embryo until external conditions, such as availability of food, are right for the emergence of another young. However, it is not unusual for a female wallaroo to have two different aged joeys in her pouch at the same time. It is extremely unusual for a wallaroo to have more than one joey of the same age at any given time, but twins have been observed on rare occasions. Mature female wallaroos often spend their lives in a state of constant pregnancy. As an older joey moves closer to being weaned, a new young embryo makes its way to the pouch, where it will attach to a teat and stay there during its development. In times of drought or food shortage, the mother wallaroo will actually suspend the development of the embryo until a better time.
A wallaroo is one of the sixty or so members of the kangaroo family. In size, it is between the kangaroo and the wallaby. There are several species, such as the Antilopine wallaroo, the Black wallaroo and the Euro, of which there are subspecies known as the Common wallaroo, Eastern wallaroo and Barrow Island euro. A wallaroo has a stockier body than its larger cousins, the Red or Grey kangaroos. A wallaroos is built for bounding up and down steep, rocky slopes and through bushy undergrowth, rather than flat open countryside. A wallaroo has distinctive dark colouring on its extremities, such as forelegs, hind limbs, tail, nose, ears and face.
