There are no current figures available for the population of the Red Kangaroo in the Northern Territory. Estimates for 2010 the states surrounding the Northern Territory include over one million in South Australia, over three million in Queensland and around 850,000 in Western Australia.

Red kangaroo populations increase and decrease with the seasons and according to whether the countryside is in drought or not. Population tend to increase by 30 to 35% during normal rainfall seasons, and to decrease by 30% during drought.

Kangaroos are found in a variety of habitats, depending on their species. The diet of larger kangaroos is grass and young shoots, so many species are found in grassy plains. Kangaroos' habitats include grasslands, mulga scrub, bushland (not too dense) and open plains - wherever there is food, and shade trees. Red kangaroos prefer this type of habitat.
