An agile wallaby (Macropus agilis) chews on a seed pod washed up on the shoreline in Queensland’s Cape Hillsborough National Park (Australia). The wallabies are drawn to the beach at dawn and dusk in search of mangrove seed pods washed ashore and plants growing on the foreshore. The firm sand of a dropping tide provides an easy route for travelling on the beach.
