<h2><font color="#800000">Is a Wallaroo a Kangaroo ?</font></h2>
<center>
<h2>NO</h2>
</center>
<h3>
There are 4 main types of "Kangaroo like" animals<br>
1) <a href="http://users.tpg.com.au/readmana/red.htm">Red
Kangaroo</a> <br>
2) Grey Kangaroo <br>
3) Wallaby <br>
4) Wallaroo (Euro)<br>
<br>
These are all mammals, and are termed marsupials because they keep
their young in a pouch
They are the only vertrabrate animal over 5 kg to HOP
<br>
<br>
<font color="#800000">Common Wallaroo or Euro</font>
<br>
In eastern Australia it is a grey animal and is called the Common
Wallaroo, (1/2 way between a WALLaby and a kangAROO in size)<br>
In central and western Australia it is reddish, lives in hot, arid
regions and is known as the Euro.<br>
But essentially they are the same animal.<br>
The above statement is a non-scientific generalisation as their
are many species & sub species of Wallaroos<br>

<font color="#800000">Description</font><br>
Wallaroos have bare muzzles and relatively large ears<br>
Head and body: 55-110cm<br>
Tail: 53-90cm<br>
Male Wallaroos are as much as twice the weight of females (Males
up to 40 -50 Kilograms).<br>
the Infant born to a Wallaroo is called a Joey<br>
Wallaroos are quiet animals using foot thumping to warn each other
of danger, When annoyed they may
"hiss or cough".<br>

The Wallaroo is a solitary animal, preferring its own company<br>
During the day the Wallaroo sleeps a in shelter, usually under a
rock overhang on a rock strewn slope or in a cave on the upper
parts of an escarpment.<br>
At night the Wallaroo descends to graze on more level ground, such
diverse areas from forest to arid tussock grassland, to the edge
of plains.<br>
Because of this habit, the damage it sometimes causes to crops or
pastures is often blamed on plains-dwelling kangaroos.) The
Wallaroo will stay in its own home range which is fairly small
(usually 2-3 km radius)Wallaroos have bare muzzles and relatively
large ears

<font color="#800000">Dry Spell Habits</font>
<br>
In dry spells,the Wallaroo can survive obtaining all necessary
water <br>
from its food, so long as moisture bearing food is available. <br>
By staying in caves during the day energy is conserved<br>
Their loss of water is similar to a camel only 2-4 % of their <br>
body weight per day<br>
Wallaroos also breed less when conditions are harsh, and unlike
the Kangaroo will stay put and "tough it out" in severe droughts<br>
<br>
<br>
<font color="#800000">Breeding</font><br>
Sexual maturity is reached between 18 and 24 months. <br>
Wallaroos breed through out the year. <br>
A single young Wallaroo is born, a hairless creature the size of a
<br>
peanut which crawls up to the mothers pouch, burrows inside and
attaches itself to a teat. <br>
The infant Wallaroo can stay up to a year in its mothers pouch</h3>
