A grazer; prefers leaves of low-fiber, high-nitrogen grasses, but will consume more chenopods in dry conditions, as well as malvaceous shrubs, forbs, reeds, sedges, and browse in small proportions. Avoids tussock grasses in spring and summer, but consumes them as available in autumn and winter. Also consumes grass sheath, stem inflorescences, and seeds, preferences for these components varying over seasons. Consumes mainly “soft” spinifex in arid areas, and is strongly attracted to new spinifex shoots after fire. Enters shallow water to eat aquatic plants at Lake Argyle, Western Australia.

) months in the pouch and are weaned at 15— 17 months. After permanent pouch emergence, young accompany the mother as a young-at-foot until well after weaning. Adult males compete intensely for access to females. Males establish dominance relationships through repetitive,ritualized bouts of display, sparring, biting, wrestling, and kicking. Males test estrous state of females by eliciting urination, nosing the stream, and exhibiting flehmen (lip-curl). Females in estrus can attract a retinue of up to six adult males, dominant male guarding the female for up to a week. Copulation is prolonged, occurring in multiple bouts averaging five minutes in length over a 70minute period.

Nocturnal to crepuscular. Nocturnal activity poorly studied; daytime activity mainly confined to the two hours after sunrise and before sunset. Shelters in caves, overhangs, deep gullies, or patches of dense vegetation during day, particularly in hot, dry weather. Abandons rocky shelters after heavy rain. Moves away from shelter to more open foraging areas in evening, returning in early morning. Changes position during the day in hot weather, lying and crouching, and licking forelimbs for evaporative cooling. Some individuals apparently nevervisit water; others drink as frequently as every second day in hot, dry weather;visits are brief (average eleven minutes) and continue at least until midnight. Also drinks from soaks excavated in creek beds.

Sedentary, with restricted movement from shelter sites to nearby foraging areas. Both sexes have quite small daily ranges, but shift their activity centers over time, so long-term range expands. Home ranges overlap extensively within and between sexes, and those of males are generally larger. Average home-range size (modified minimum convex polygon) was 46-206 ha for males and 45-102 ha for females at one semi-arid site, and was 77-401 ha at another semi-arid site where two males had elongated ranges. Average home ranges (95% Foutier transform, MAP95) at an arid site were 309 ha for males and 150 ha for females over two years, then 215-295 ha for males and 75-85 ha for females over subsequent three years. Individuals translocated to sites 6—15 km away returned to their home ranges. Dispersal is male-biased, with movements of up to 18 km reported. Essentially solitary; most often seen alone, but can occur in groups of up to 15. Average group size 1s 1-2 and is positively related to population density. Group membership is open, and both single-sex and mixed-sex groups occur. Group size and composition rarely change within a day, but frequently do so on a longer time scale. Large males and females with young-at-foot are most often alone.

Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Barrow Island population (isabellinus) is listed as vulnerable in Australia because of its small distribution and population size. The Common Wallaroo is widespread and locally common on Australian mainland. It is well represented in protected areas and is not currently facing any major threats. It has benefited in some areas from the clearing of forest/woodland, the establishment of improved pasture, and the provision of water for livestock. At some sites Common Wallaroos are regarded as agricultural pests and periodic culling is undertaken. They are also commercially harvested in New South Wales, Queensland, and South Australia, and are subject to local hunting by Aboriginal people in parts of central, western, and northern Australia. Most subspecies are poorly studied, and additional research into taxonomy, ecology, behavior, population genetics and demography, especially of the eastern and northern subspecies, is required.
