The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 6

16. Macropus major. — The Great Kangaroo. — Bullucur of the Murray natives

16. Macropus major.

The Great Kangaroo.

Bullucur of the Murray natives.

A much more common species than the preceding, and similar in its habits, the female producing only one young one at a time. The pouch has 4 teats.

Dr. James C. Cox has lately presented two young of this species to the Museum, which were both taken from the same pouch. I mention this as being of very rare occurrence; they are about ½ inch long.
