Hi Chris. These are sightings of the Wallaroo:- https://canberra.naturemapr.org/species/8072?ViewMode=Images They look different to your examples here which have reddish-brown colouring. I can't tell the size from the photo.

if you go to the other picture its a male as it has big watsits the trail Camera behind it is a meter high, I'll post a picture of the small swamp wallaby it is only 2 foot high as the stump it is under is only 1 meter in Hight max probably less. but Both this wallaroo and the swamp wallaby have identical colouring and Markings but are different animals
