The common wallaroo inhabits rocky and hilly Australian areas. It selects landscapes offering protection from heat: rocks, overhangs and shaded hollows. Its range includes several subspecies with differing coats. Males often have darker colouring than females, but local forms do not all look alike.
It feeds mainly on grasses, supplemented by other vegetation. It moves between shelters and feeding places within its occupied area. Food quality and water conservation matter. Daily rhythms depend on temperature and conditions experienced by each population.
Group composition changes. Males may compete by standing upright and using powerful limbs. The young develops in its mother's pouch, later gradually beginning to leave it while feeding.
