 * Support original (cropped) equal parts encyclopedic and charming. Good focus and contrast, on the small side but not too small.  Durova Charge! 06:56, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Support. Do they normally sit with their tail facing forward like that? I can't say I've noticed. Diliff  | (Talk)   (Contribs) 16:51, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Interesting question. The ONLY time I've seen this pose before in a macropod is when they are giving birth (it gives the joey, who is little more than an embryo at birth, an easier, safer path to the pouch). But this doesn't look like it's giving birth. Perhaps the creator can elaborate on what was going on here? --jjron (talk) 14:22, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I think they often sit like that - I've got a shot of one of these without a joey and it's sitting exactly the same --Fir0002 01:25, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I've never seen a kangaroo sit like this but seems quite common among wallabies; I've got dozens of shots of Red Necks in this posture. Seems to be something they do when they're really relaxed and content. Benjamint 10:21, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. Maybe I need to get out more... :-). --jjron (talk) 11:27, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Support Original Wow. Good image, I like the composition (of the cropped version), and it certainly got me interested. Good Ev, too. Elucidate ( light up ) 19:09, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Support Original. Good EV, if this is a common pose. Nautica Shad es  14:46, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Support original - probably better for on Wikipedia, though the uncropped might do better on commons. Shoemaker&#39;s Holiday (talk) 22:02, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
