The Eastern grey kangaroo is a large marsupial native to eastern Australia. It is characterized by its long legs, strong tail, and grey-brown fur. These kangaroos are herbivores, primarily feeding on grasses and leaves, and are known for their powerful hind legs, which allow them to leap great distances. Eastern grey kangaroos are social animals, often found in groups called mobs. They are most active during the early morning and late afternoon, resting in the shade during the hottest parts of the day. Their population is stable, and they are commonly seen in both rural and urban areas across Australia.
