Mothers form nursery colonies for the young.
This is the most common macropod in Australia's wet tropics. It is especially abundant on the coast flood plains of Arnhem Land. In the wet season floods drive wallabies off the coastal plains and back to the base of the escarpment where grasses are sparse. Despite the fluctuations of the food supplies, the wallabies breed all year. The young leave the pouch at seven or eight months and are weaned about ten months.
