History

The Western Grey Kangaroo is one of the four primary subspecies in Australia and has adapted well to diverse environments, ranging from semi-arid scrublands to temperate forests. Their grazing behavior plays a vital role in sustaining the ecosystem, helping to disperse seeds and maintain grassland diversity. The presence of kangaroos often signals the overall health of their habitat, as they thrive in areas that offer a balance of open spaces and cover.
