Who am I?

A particularly large Australian marsupial found in southern and eastern Australia. It reaches a height of about 2 meters and weighs between 40-70 kg. Like other kangaroo species, the gray kangaroo is also active mainly at sunset, at dusk, and at night.

Communication and behavior methods

The grey kangaroo communicates with sounds that sound like tongue clicks. When being walked on, they make sounds that sound like coughing/growling.
