The grace, beauty, and speed of the kangaroo symbolizes for many the essence of wild Australia. In "Kangaroos and Wallabies" leading wildlife photographer Dave Watts pays tribute to kangaroos and their smaller relatives -- wallabies, pademelons, bettongs, and wallaroos -- in a magnificent and informative portrait. Authoritative introductory text provides an insight into the evolution of these unique creatures. Discover why they are different from other animals; what habitats they favor; and how they have adapted to their sometimes harsh environment. Gain an insight into their diet and breeding habits; what they mean to Australians; and what the future holds for kangaroos and wallabies. Five chapters, divided into species groupings, illustrate with superb photographs and extended captions the size, form, and features of each species. Stunning images depict these incredible animals in their natural habitat, as Dave Watts travels around the continent capturing the many and varied species on film.
