His vertical position is distinctive, lying on his hind feet, which are very long and strong, endorsing on his thick and long tail. His forefeet are much shorter and the animal uses them as hands, grabbing the food that he takes to his mouth. His head is relatively small, with thick and directed upwards ears. The color of his short fur is of a reddish-brown. The kangaroos walk in groups, pasturing especially at night, spending the day secluded in thickets. The groups usually count 8-12 exemplars.
