The Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby
Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby in good season
The Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby Petrogale xanthopus is Australia’s prettiest macropod and largest rock wallaby. We’re incredibly lucky to live close to the stronghold of this arid zone specialist in the Flinders Ranges. Here, they are known as andu by the Adnyamathanha people.
Who can forget the sudden and unexpected joy of disturbing a pair in a gorge, to watch them seem to float over the boulders as they make their effortless escape.
