The term "black wallaby" typically refers to a species of marsupial found in Australia, commonly known as the black-gloved wallaby. However, there are a few synonyms used to describe this animal, including the swamp wallaby, the black-tailed wallaby, and the stinker. The swamp wallaby is a close relative of the black-gloved wallaby and has a similar appearance, but is typically found in wetter environments. The black-tailed wallaby refers specifically to individuals with a darker coat and longer tail than the average black-gloved wallaby. Lastly, the stinker earned its nickname due to the strong odor it emits as a defense mechanism against predators.
