Question
Hey, Frank
I'm Stacey from London Ontario Canada, and I love Australia. I've been wanting to move there (When I've finished school) since I was about 10. This is a silly question I guess, but are wallabys available as pets? Ha ha, I've just had a facination with them for the longest time.
Thanks a bunch,
Stacey.  

Answer
G'day Stacey,
            I have never seen a family in the city with a wallaby as a pet. I am sure they would be able to be tamed though. At the zoo's and wildlife parks, I have had them come up to me and eat out of my hands. There may be people who have them as pets in the country, but I have never seen one.

I hope this helps.


Regards,
Frank

I have lived in Brisbane all my life (53 years). I am very proud of our city and the Sunshine State of Queensland. I am happy to help in any way possible. Queensland is a very humid and hot place in Summer, which makes it great for outdoor fun.

Experience

I have a great love and knowledge of Brisbane and the surrounding areas. I holiday on the Sunshine Coast every year, and visit the Gold Coast numerous times during the year for work. We love to dine out, and can recommend many places to try in Brisbane and the Coasts.
