Wallaby taken at Woburn Abbey with baby in pouch


The red necked wallaby is found along the south east coast of Australia and the island of Tasmania. They are part of the macropod family, which includes wallabies, kangaroos, and wallaroos. This name comes from the Greek ‘makros’, meaning long, and ‘pous’ meaning foot. The red necked wallaby gets its English name from the patch of reddish fur around its neck and shoulders.
