It depends on the species of kangaroo.
- Tree kangaroos, for example, typically have a tail length exceeding that of their body length.
- Most species of wallabies also have a tail which usually exceeds their body length.
- Male red kangaroos, the largest of all the kangaroo species, may have a body length of up to 2 metres, and a tail length half of that, which is just 1 metre.
- The quokka is a member of the kangaroo family with a much shorter tail than that of the average wallaby its size, but slightly more than half its body length.
- The musky rat-kangaroo is the smallest member of the kangaroo family. Its body length ranges from 15cm to 27cm, with a tail length ranging from 12-16cm which, again, is more than half its body length.

Can kangaroos balance on their tales and kick you in the face?
No. Kangaroos engage in "boxing" as a territorial behaviour, and a way to establish the dominant male in a mob, but there is little value in them punching for protection as their short forelegs are not particularly strong. They will use their tails to balance, and deliver a powerful kick with their hind legs. Kangaroos tend to rely on their speed and endurance to escape from predators.
