There are 19 recognized species of Rock Wallabies. They are nocturnal animals that live in steep, rocky, complex terrain, often seeking shelter in caves or under overhangs during the day and at night, they venture out to feed, primarily on grasses, fruits, and other vegetation.

Rock Wallabies are quite small to medium-sized marsupials, with a weight range of 1-12 kilograms. They are extremely agile and can move swiftly through rocky terrains thanks to the soles on their flexible and well-padded hind feet, which have a rough texture that provides good grip on rocks. Their long and bushy tail helps them balance when they leap over boulders.

These animals are very social and form small colonies. They are highly territorial, with both males and females fiercely defending their home ranges as well as their den sites. Despite living in groups, they are usually quiet, but scientists believe that they communicate using a complex array of behaviours and chemical signals.
