Here is another collection of Bandung's Zoo: The Agile Wallaby (Wallabia Agilis).
Wallaby is a marsupial that, together with the kangaroo and wallaroo, belongs to the family of macropodidae (macropod = large foot). There are currently about 30 species of wallaby that have been identified, some of which - including this Agile Wallaby - are native to the Indonesian provinces of Papua and West Papua (formerly called Irian Jaya) on the island of Papua.
I hadn't realised there was so many varieties of kangaroo.
