The Red-Necked Wallaby are sometimes warm. In their natural habitat, temperatures can rise so high that even the Red-necked Wallaby has a hot feeling. By licking its hands and arms, it cools itself. When the wind blows over this wet fur, the Red-Necked Wallaby experiences this as cooling.
When a young comes into the world, it is small, helpless and undeveloped. The cub immediately crawls into its mother’s pouch. Here it will continue to develop. This usually takes a few months. Young wallabies are also called Joeys. Even after a Joey leaves the pouch, it often returns to the pouch when danger threatens.
