What do you know about Crescent Nail-tail Wallabies?
The Crescent Nailtail wallaby is extinct, so very little is known about this species. The last time it was seen was during the 1940s. Prior to its extinction, it was widespread across the arid and semi-arid scrublands and woodlands of central and southern Australia. Its feeding habits were unknown, but like most members of the kangaroo family, it is expected that this wallaby was crepuscular, feeding in the early morning and at dusk. The Crescent Nailtail wallaby was ash-grey in colour, with rufous colouring across its shoulders. It was called the 'crescent' Nailtail because of the distinctive white crescent shaped stripe behind its shoulder blades and extending down to its chest. Its tail had a short, black crest along the top to the tip.
