What is the average height of an Albino Kangaroo?

Answer 1

There is no such species as an albino kangaroo. Albino kangaroos, or white kangaroos, are simply variants within the normal species of kangaroos, whether it be a red kangaroo, grey kangaroo, wallaby or a pademelon. As with all albino animals, albino kangaroos have a reduced amount of melanin pigment in the eyes, skin, and hair, meaning that the normal colouring is absent. Albinos can occur in any species of kangaroo.

Thus, the average height of an albino kangaroo depends on the species.

Red Kangaroos are the largest of the kangaroos. The Red Kangaroo averages 1.6 meters (5.25 ft)tall. Accounts of sizes greater than this are not uncommon, with some large males reportedly reaching approximately 2 meters (6.6 ft), but this would be unusual in an albino kangaroo, as they would tend to be smaller and less robust than their normal coloured counterparts.

The smallest known member of the very wide-ranging kangaroo family is the Musky Rat-kangaroo, which is about 23 cm long. Therefore, one might occasionally encounter a very small albino kangaroo - if it lived. Various other members of the kangaroo family - of which there are over 60 - range in size between those two.
