The only up-to-date book on these unique mammals, the author makes recent research on the biology, locomotion, behaviour and ecology of large kangaroos accessible. Covering all six species and four sub-species, Dawson considers the evolution of kangaroos, as well as their energetics, grazing habits, and classification. For each species he details social organisation, habitat, patterns of activity, population, structure, reproductive biology, feeding characteristics, environmental physiology and conservation efforts.
