Shot Notes
This is a Red-necked Pademelon in the Lamington National Park in Queensland, Australia. They are smaller than Kangaroos and Wallabies but have the same body shape. This one was particularly tame, only the sound of an old diesel engine struggling up the hill made it raise its head from the task of keeping the campsite lawn mowed. The mountain park is surrounded by Gondwanan rainforest and is even cooler than Canungra. It is the first time on this trip it has dipped below 27C so it is time to rug up.

Cute! But difficult to determine his size and Wikipedia does not tell me. Rug up?
They are about house cat sized. 27C is cold for Queensland so extra clothes needed to rug up.
