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.
