Abstract

Rock wallabies (Petrogale spp.) often occur on isolated rocky outcrops in low-rainfall areas. One male wallaby, from a population of black-flanked rock wallabies (P. lateralis lateralis) being surveyed as part of an ecology and fertility study, died following capture. Post mortem examination revealed the animal to be in poor condition with signs of chronic stress and an extensive, metastasising bronchogenic carcinoma.
