Abstract

Methods of estimating the age of pouch young of the grey kangaroo (Macropus giganteus Shaw), the eastern wallaroo ( Osphranter robustus (Gould) ) and the red-necked wallaby (Wallabia rufogrisea (Desmarest)) from length of tail and hind feet, and regressions relating age to an index of progression of the molar teeth (Kirkpatrick 1964) for adults of these species and the red kangaroo (Megaleia rufa (Desmarest)), have been published (Kirkpatrick 1965).
