The red-necked wallaby, or Bennett's wallaby, is a medium-sized marsupial mammal from the kangaroo family. The animal jumps on strong hind legs and carries its joey in a pouch on its belly.
The red-necked wallaby differs from other wallabies by its reddish fur on the neck and shoulders. It helps nature by spreading plant seeds through its droppings and serves as food for local predators.
