Hello Margot
Thanks for your comment. For me it is difficult to identify these Kangaroos.
Which features on these photos are important for me to identify these kangaroos as Eastern Grey Kangaroos.
Thanks Jan

Hi Jan,

It's definately a bit tricky. Wallaroos (Macropus robustus) are a lot musclier and furrier than Eastern Grey kangaroos, especially around the forearms.
