Macropod hybrids are hybrids of animals within the family Macropodidae, which includes kangaroos and wallabies. Several macropod hybrids have been experimentally bred, including:
| Male | Female | Result | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Eastern wallaroo, Osphranter robustus robustus | Red kangaroo, O. rufus | Infertile female* | |
| Swamp wallaby, Wallabia bicolor | Red-necked wallaby, M. rufogriseus | Sterile male† | |
| Agile wallaby, M. agilis | Red-necked wallaby, M. rufogriseus | Sterile male† | |
| Tammar wallaby, M. eugenii | Black-striped wallaby, M. dorsalis | Sterile male† | |
| Western grey kangaroo, M. fuliginosus | Eastern grey kangaroo, M. giganteus | Sterile male and fertile female | |
| Red kangaroo, O. rufus‡ | Eastern grey kangaroo, M. giganteus | ||
| Tammar wallaby, M. eugenii | Parma wallaby, M. parma | ||
| Tammar wallaby, M. eugenii | Pademelon, Thylogale species |
Some hybrids between similar species have been achieved by housing males of one species and females of the other together to limit the choice of a mate. To create a "natural" macropod hybrid, young animals of one species have been transferred to the pouch of another so as to imprint into them the other species. In-vitro fertilization has also been used and the fertilized egg implanted into a female of either species.[1]
