Australia Zoo, Even More Animals




Top: Kangaroo.
Kangaroo's are the largest marsupial alive on earth today. Kangaroo's have excellent sight and hearing and their collective group is called a 'Mob'
An interesting fact about Kangaroo's is that they can't move backwards very easily.
Second Top: Wallaby.
In this picture is a Red-necked Wallaby. Red-necked Wallaby's are protected by law in all states in Australia. Wallaby's are predominantly nocturnal animals.
Third Top: Exotic Parrot.
Parrots are intelligent animals and if kept as a pet, special care is needed to keep them occupied and away from boredom.
Bottom: Otter.
Otters are extremely swift swimmers and can be found on every continent in the world. Otters are part of the Mustelid family which also includes animals such as Skunks and Minks.
