This is difficult to answer definitely, as there is so much variation.

In the wild, kangaroos live anything from 7-15 years on average with the smaller species having shorter life expectancies. In captivity, kangaroos can live upward of 20 years. Many wild kangaroos are killed on the road, and culling also occurs to control their numbers in certain areas.

Depending on the species, kangaroos can live anywhere between 12-15 years. Smaller species have a life span of less than ten years.
