Over the past 10 years or so I have come across 4 Wallaroos killed on the roads between the zoo (adjacent to the Tugg Parkway) and Black Mt Peninsula but I have never seen a live one on Black Mt nor was any recorded during the kangaroo count in the Aranda Bushland which involved about 30 people walking in a line counting every roo or wallaby on their left. 11 Swamp Wallabies were recorded.  I suspect they (Wallaroos) come up the Molonglo Valley heading for Black Mt or just exploring but get killed on the way. Has anyone seen one on Black Mt?
