• Possibly speedy close. I'm not a kangaroo expert, but I've seen enough to know that it doesn't look like a red kangaroo at all. Looks like an Eastern Grey Kangaroo to me. Compare to the Commons gallery of red kangaroos... Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 16:56, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
• Speedy close: Diliff is correct. Take a look at the tail and the tail is "black/grey" (Female Eastern Grey) were as File:Female Red Kangaroo (Macropus rufus).jpg photo shows a fatter tail and also a "red/grey" (Female Red). Bidgee (talk) 01:08, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
