Animals Mammals

Bennett’s wallaby, also commonly referred to as the red-necked wallaby, is named for the reddish fur on the nape and shoulder. Like kangaroos, they are marsupials, which are mammals characterized by a distinctive pouch in which females carry their young though early infancy. Our wallabies share their habitat with our red kangaroos in the Koala Walkabout exhibit presented by Kimberly-Clark Corporation.
