A group of Kangaroos is known as a mob. The mob will have one dominant male and number of adult females, some subordinate males and their young. The Red Kangaroo can survive on low water consumption as it receives its nutrients from the foliage that it consumes. The Red Kangaroo is most active from late afternoon to early morning and rests during most of the day.
