The eastern grey kangaroo inhabits the eastern third of Australia, where its population reaches several millions. People call it the great gray kangaroo and the forester kangaroo.
These creatures rank as the second largest and heaviest living marsupial. An adult male commonly weighs around 110 to 146 pounds. Females commonly weigh around 37 to 88 pounds. They have a powerful tail that extends over 39 inches long.
The eastern grey kangaroo features a long, deer-like face with large ears that pivot to catch sounds. Dark eyes sit on the sides of their face. They display an upright posture, large powerful hind legs, and a long muscular tail.
Because they are nocturnal, people mostly spot them early in the morning, or as the light starts to fade in the evening. In the middle of the day, they rest in the cover of the woodlands.
Females give birth to a single baby after a remarkably short pregnancy of only 36 days. The joey stays hidden inside the mother’s pouch for about 8 to 9 months.
