The Common Wallaby (Macropus rufogriseus) is a medium-sized marsupial native to Australia and nearby islands. It typically has a grayish-brown fur with a lighter underbelly and a distinctive reddish-brown patch on its back. These wallabies are herbivorous, primarily feeding on grasses, leaves, and shrubs, and are known for their strong hind legs, which allow them to hop efficiently. Common Wallabies are social animals, often found in small groups called mobs. They are most active during the early morning and late afternoon, seeking shelter in dense vegetation during the heat of the day. Their populations are stable, and they are commonly seen in various habitats, including forests, grasslands, and coastal areas, making them a familiar sight in the wild.
