Boater rescues tired wallaby swimming out to sea

Boater rescues tired wallaby swimming out to sea more than 100 metres [328 feet] offshore. When seagulls started madly squawking near the Portland marina in western Victoria, Matt Smith thought they'd found a dog in the water. He was in for a surprise. Wallabies, being much shorter, more compact, and more densely-furred than kangaroos are much poorer swimmers than kangaroos.
