What is the difference between a kangaroo and a wallaby?

[Edit]

Answer

All wallabies are in the kangaroo family, but the term is used for a number of the smaller and more stocky species of the family.

Wallaby can refer to both the smaller types of kangaroo, or to the genus Walllabia. All are Macropods.
