Wallabies do not live in the desert, and therefore do not need to adapt to desert life. Wallabies live primarily in scrub and open bushland, or in rocky, hilly areas.
It depends on what is meant by desert.Various members of the kangaroo family live in semi-arid areas, but not sandy deserts. Much of Australia's desert is notsandy desert.Euros, for example, are large members of the kangaroo family which can be found in semi-arid areas (and also the other extreme such as wet eucalypt forests). The mala, or Rufous hare-wallaby, is found across semi-arid and arid scrubland of western Australia. The Crescent nailtail wallaby is common in arid and semi-arid scrubland, while the Yellow-footed rock wallaby is found in rocky escarpments in semi-arid ranges.Even Red kangaroos do not live in sandy deserts because there is not enough food for them. They live in grasslands, bushland and other well-vegetated areas, as well as semi-arid areas where there is plenty of vegetation and permanent waterholes. The red kangaroo can be found in parts of the Simpson Desert, Gibson Desert and the Great Victoria Desert.
The quokka is found on Rottnest Island, off the coast of Western Australia. Originally thought to be a type of wallaby, it is now in a class of its own.
