Balbaroo

Balbaroo is an extinct genus of quadrupedal kangaroo that once lived in Australia.

Taxonomy
The genus was erected in 1983 to describe a new species of early marsupials, Balbaroo camfieldensis. Since then, it has been determined that members of the genus possessed sharp canines. Despite the sharp canines, the presence of low-crowned bilophodont molars seems to indicate an herbivorous diet.

Four species are currently recognised:
 * Balbaroo camfieldensis Flannery, Archer and Plane, 1983
 * Balbaroo fangaroo Cooke, 2000
 * Balbaroo gregoriensis Flannery, Archer and Plane, 1983
 * Balbaroo nalima Black et al, 2014
