Curious large Red Kangaroo

            The red kangaroo (Macropus rufus) or red giant kangaroo is the largest of all kangaroos, the largest terrestrial mammal native to Australia, and the largest extant marsupial. It is found across mainland Australia, except for the more fertile areas, such as southern Western Australia, the east and southeast coasts, and the rainforests along the northern coast. Males grow up to a head-and-body length of 1.3–1.6 m with a tail that adds a further 1.2 m  to the total length. Females are considerably smaller, with a head-and-body length of 85–105 cm and tail length of 65–85 cm. Females can weigh from 18 to 40 kg, while males typically weigh about twice as much at 55 to 90 kg. The average red kangaroo stands approximately 1.5 m  tall to the top of the head in upright posture. Large mature males can stand more than 1.8 m tall, with the largest confirmed one having been around 2.1 m  tall and weighed 91 kg.  15904
