Kangaroos Are the Largest Marsupials on Earth
Kangaroos are the largest marsupials alive today. The largest species of kangaroo (by weight) is the red kangaroo, which can stand more than five feet tall not including a three-foot-long tail and weigh 180 pounds. Eastern gray kangaroos can be taller, with some adult males reaching nearly seven feet, but they're also leaner, only weighing up to 120 pounds. Red, eastern gray, and western gray kangaroos are the most common species.

Kangaroo

The kangaroo is a marsupial from the family Macropodidae (macropods, meaning "large foot"). In common use the term is used to describe the largest species from this family, the red kangaroo, as well as the antilopine kangaroo, eastern grey kangaroo, and western grey kangaroo.[1] Kangaroos are indigenous to Australia and New Guinea. The Australian government estimates that 42.8 million kangaroos lived within the commercial harvest areas of Australia in 2019, down from 53.2 million in 2013.[2]

Black Wallaroo

The Black Wallaroo is the smallest of the Wallaroo species, and one of the smallest Kangaroo family members overal. They grow to a maximum height of only 1m, and weigh less than 50lbs.

They are also the Wallaroo with the most limited range-- these Marsupials are found only in a tiny part of Australia's Northern Territory. In that small range though, they live in an assortment of habitats. These include both dense forests and open grasslands.

Antilopine Kangaroo

This species of kangaroos is also known as the antilopine wallaroo or the antilopine wallaby and they live mainly in the northern parts of Australia.

The fur on these kinds of kangaroos share the same color and texture as the fur of antelopes and their name, antilopine, is derived from that animal’s name.

These kangaroo varieties also exhibit sexual dimorphism which means that the males and females have different physical characteristics.

Antilopine Kangaroo (Macropus antilophius)

The name “Antilopine” is derived from the fur of this species, which is comparable to that of antelopes in both color and texture. The Antilopine kangaroos (M. antilopinus), are also at times referred to as the Antilopine wallaroos and the Antilopine wallaby.

They populate the plains and paddocks of the tropical north, all the way from the Cape York Peninsula in the east, extending to the Kimberley in the west.

The Grey kangaroo is the next largest. Two species, the Western and Eastern grey, belong to this family. The Western kangaroo lives as you might expect in Western Australia, but the Eastern kangaroo likes forest and grassland areas of Australia's east coast, and is the only kangaroo species on the island of Tasmania. The species has a woolly textured coat, compared to the Red kangaroo's silkier one, and is a grayish-brown color. Males measure up to 5 feet in height and weigh about 145 pounds. Females are only 4 feet tall by comparison and weigh in at 77 pounds.
