Western Grey Kangaroos live in dry open forests, woodlands, open scrub, and heath. Like the red kangaroo, the western grey kangaroo will feed from late afternoon to early morning. In the wild they live in mobs of 40-50 which are spread over a home range of 8km2, with the older males preferring to live a solitary life.

Western Grey Kangaroos are a large, robust animal with chocolate-brown fur and dark brown feet, paws and tail tip.
The gestation period of the western grey is 30 days, and once the joey is born it will suckle in its mothers pouch for about 10 months, then the joey will stay at her foot for a further 7 months.
