moonvoiceMost of these kangaroos are red kangaroos,
though they're being bred towards being leucistic,
so many are far paler than their natural colouring.
But it also means none of them are albinos
potentially suffering from the genetic issues that can come with albinism.
I petted a lot of these folks I'm not gonna lie they're very fuzzy and I love them all.

A young red kangaroo.
They have really nice winter fuzziness atm.
Closer to normal colouration for the reds.
Leucistic fellow and one with more normal colouration behind.
Such grace!
This little guy spent some time getting comfortable.
And then was joined by another young one.
A Grey kangaroo.
Red male.
Time for food!
I love how they lope slowly.
These folks were happily chewing on some paperbark, not sure why (possibly digestive? Or something they'd naturally do in the wild?) And had no interest in the pellet food.
