Wallabies

Wallabies are small to medium-sized marsupials from the same family as kangaroos, native to Australia. They are equipped with strong hind legs for hopping and short, muscular tails that help with balance. Wallabies are herbivores, feeding mainly on grasses, leaves, and fruits. They typically inhabit forests, grasslands, and bushland, where they are often solitary or found in small groups. Known for their agility and quick movements, wallabies play a vital role in their ecosystems by aiding seed dispersal. They are adaptable animals, but some species are threatened by habitat loss and human activity.
