While on holiday on Phillip Island this last week, my family and I came across a Wallaby eating a bird. I thought they were only herbivores. Does anyone have an explanation for this? Viv
A wallaby is a member of the kangaroo family. It is one of any of about thirty species of macropod (Family Macropodidae). It is smaller than a kangaroo or wallaroo. While a member of the kangaroo family, it has its own distinct species and classification. Wallabies are native to Australia and are grouped/classified according to the habitat in which they live. Thus, there are swamp wallabies, brush wallabies, and rock wallabies. All wallabies are herbivores.
The dingo and foxes are the main animals that eat rock wallabies. Wedge-tailed eagles and other birds of prey are also likely to swoop down and grab unwary rock-wallabies, as these types of wallabies are more likely to be out on exposed rock faces.
Wallabies have colouring that enables them to camouflage naturally within their habitat. Whether they are rock wallabies, swamp wallabies or brush wallabies, they tend to blend in with their environment.

Wallabies play a crucial role in their ecosystem by aiding in seed dispersal, which helps maintain plant diversity and health. As herbivores, they graze on grasses and shrubs, promoting new growth and preventing overgrowth that could lead to habitat degradation. Their movements also help aerate the soil, enhancing water infiltration and nutrient cycling. Additionally, wallabies serve as prey for larger predators, contributing to the balance of the food web.
Wallabies do not live in the desert.
