Kangaroos are macropods—marsupials that carry their young in a pouch, have large hind legs that are ideal for hopping along at impressive speeds through Australia’s savannas or forests, and a long, thick tail that can act as a third leg to help them balance. Kangaroos are the largest and most social macropods.
At Kangaroo Walk in Walkabout Australia, you can walk among western gray kangaroos as you meander through their grassland habitat.
