Ranging of Eastern Grey Kangaroos and Wallaroos on a New England Pastoral Property

Abstract

Eastern grey kangaroos and wallaroos were caught, collared or radio-collared, and released on part of a developed New England pastoral property, to investigate dispersal from and within the property. A few grey kangaroos, but no wallaroos, were detected dispersing relatively long distances (up to 17 km). Most individuals of both species were sedentary in small, overlapping home ranges.
