Donate Today International Wildlife September/October 1997 Everything You Always Wanted to Know About K A N G A R O O S A collection of fact and lore, in two dozen easy lessons Who's Who in The Macropod World When the Australian continental plate separated from Antarctica and began drifting north 64 to 136 million years ago, only its higher elevations protruded above the ocean, comprising a patchwork of isolated tropical islands. As their climate cooled and dried, and ocean levels fell, they formed a continent blanketed by large patches of grasslands. Marsupialsmammals with external pouches in which their young developexploited the new gastronomic bonanza. The colonization began inauspiciously about 30 million years ago, after rat-sized animals hopped down from the relative safety of trees. They, in turn, gave rise to kangaroos and their various relativesall called macropods. Many developed extraordinary speed and water-conserving physiology. The animals eventually occupied niches ranging from rocky hills, to forests, to open countryvarying in size from the musky rat-kangaroo, which can weigh less than half a kilogram (1 lb.), to red kangaroos, which can weigh more than 80 kilograms (175 lbs.). Here are some of the current highlights of who's who among macropods: * The Big Guys: The most well-known macropods are the three widespread species of large kangaroos. The red kangaroo most often inhabits the open plains of inland Australia and can live on little water. Eastern and western grey kangaroos, which need more drinking water than reds, usually inhabit woodlands, although they graze pastures at night. All three are closely related to 11 smaller wallabies and wallaroos that thrive in habitats ranging from wet forests to arid and semi-arid grasslandsand all look fairly similar except for differences in size.

M ARSUPIALS OF A USTRALIA Home Marsupials Two Families of animals are included in this grouping; the macropodoids and the potoroids . Members of both families have short forelimbs and long hindfeet that enable them to move in a fast hopping gait. All have a pouch that opens forwards. Most are active at night and seek shelter to rest during the day. Family Macropodidae Of the 40 species of macropods found in Australia, only two occur elsewhere (in New Guinea). The family contains kangaroos, wallabies, wallaroos, quokka, pademelons and ranges in size from the Red Kangaroo at 1.8m (6ft) and 90kg (198lb) down to the Monjon at 35cm (13in) and 1.4kg (3lb). The distinction between 'kangaroo' and 'wallaby' is made by size; the six largest species are known as kangaroos. Because females tend to be considerably smaller than the males, this tends to be an arbitrary distinction as females of one species may be smaller than males of another. FEA TURES rest during the day under bushes and logs DIET the larger members of the group graze in grasslands whilst others browse on leaves Within this Family there are several groupings : GROUPING FEATURES NUMBER OF SPECIES Kangaroos , Wallabies, and Wallaroos a very diverse group, collectively found in most habitats

Kangaroos Kangaroos is on ABC TV on 08/09/2004 at 10:15am. They are marsupials They are the only large mammal that can hop. They live in groups called mobs. Males are called bucks. Females are called does. Babies are called joeys. Joeys are the size of a jellybean when they are born. They are pink, blind and hairless. They live in their mother's pouch drinking her milk. When they're about a year old they don't need mum's milk any more – but they stay close to her as they still have a lot to learn. Kangaroos are herbivores . They eat only grasses, leaves and the shoots of small trees. As they do most of their feeding in the evening or at night they are nocturnal animals. How do kangaroos keep cool? They rest in the heat of the day. They pant like a dog. They dig shallow holes under trees and lie in the cool sand. They have a spit bath by licking their arms. Kangaroos are very good swimmers but they will only take to water when chased or if they have no other choice. They have very good hearing, eyesight and sense of smell.
