Cute Kangaroo Face Close-up Australia Large Clock

It's always time for a cute young Western Gray Kangaroo! The western gray kangaroo (Macropus fuliginosus), is one of four large kangaroos and wallaroos that occur in Australia. The species is distributed across the southern part of the Australian mainland. Western gray kangaroos are large marsupials that are 97-223 centimeters from head to tail and three to 70 kilograms in weight (females weigh up to 34 kilograms). Although called gray kangaroos, they are light gray-brown to chocolate in color with paler undersides. Western gray kangaroos sometimes have white marks on the forehead and, unlike other kangaroos, the muzzle is finely haired. Males have a strong, characteristic odor and well-muscled shoulders and forearms. This close-up photo was taken in Onkaparinga River National Park near Adelaide in South Australia.
