One of the most common predator of the swamp wallaby tends to be domestic dogs left unsupervised. The dingo and foxes are also predators of the wallaby, and feral cats can pose a threat to younger animals.
Swamp wallaby was created in 1804.
The swamp wallaby is nocturnal, so is most active at night.
It depends on the species. Dingoes are the main predators of common wallabies such as the red-necked wallaby and the swamp wallaby, but where they frequent suburban fringes, the main predators are domestic dogs that have been left to roam. When it comes to rock wallabies, dingoes and foxes are the main predators. Feral cats also are responsible for reducing their populations, while natural predators include wedge-tailed eagles and other birds of prey.
There is no separate species known as the white Bennett's wallaby. Any white wallaby is a mutation, an albino, and ever more susceptible to predators than other wallabies, because it stands out easily. Introduced predators such as foxes and feral cats are the main danger to wallabies, while natural predators such as dingoes, eagles, hawks and pythons also prey on wallabies, including Bennett's wallaby.
Dingoes are the main predators of the red-necked wallaby.
There are many examples of predators and prey in the swamp. One example is alligators and the fish that they eat.
Swamp wallabies primarily feed on vegetation rather than actively hunting prey, as they are herbivores. They use their strong hind legs to browse on grasses, leaves, and shrubs, employing a browsing technique rather than attacking other animals. If threatened, a swamp wallaby may display defensive behavior, such as thumping its hind legs to signal danger or quickly fleeing to escape predators. Overall, they are not aggressive hunters and focus on foraging for plant material.
There is more than one species of wallaby which is endangered. Rock wallabies are most vulnerable. Wallabies with a conservation status of "endangered" include the following (among others):Brush tailed rock wallabyYellow footed rock wallabyProserpine rock-wallabyBridled nailtail wallabyBanded hare-wallaby
There are different types of wallaby grass. All wallaby grass belongs to the Austrodanthonia species. Scientific names include:Common Wallaby-Grass: Austrodanthonia caespitosaBristly Wallaby-Grass: Austrodanthonia setaceaCommon Swamp Wallaby-Grass: Amphibromus nervosusBudawangs Wallaby-Grass: Plinthanthesis rodwayiRinged Wallaby-Grass: AustrodanthoniacaespitoseThere are nearly 30 species of wallaby grass. Each one has its own scientific name. The genus for wallaby grass is Austrodanthonia. You can follow the link below to the names of 25 Austrodanthonia species.

Swamp hens are the topp predators so no 1 can eat em'!
There is no such species as the Western hare wallaby. The hare wallaby found in the western part of Australia is the Rufous hare wallaby, also known as the Mala. Its predators are eagles and hawks, but introduced species such as foxes and feral cats pose an even greater threat.
