There are no native animals overpopulating Australia. Some, such as the red kangaroo, are considered a pest to farmers, but this does not mean they overpopulate the country. Farmers have cleared land for agriculture - land which was native habitat for these animals.
Introduced animals which overpopulate Australia and are therefore detrimental to the native habitat of Australia include pigeons, feral goats, camels, various vermin such as mice etc, feral cats, feral pigs, foxes, rabbits, cane toads, horses, sheep (farmed) and cattle (farmed).
