The animal on the cover of Applied Embedded Electronics is a yellow-footed rock wallaby (Petrogale xanthopus), an Australian marsupial found in western New South Wales, eastern South Australia, and portions of Queensland.
With a robust body, accompanied by a bushy tail, this wallaby sports grizzled grey or brown fur that provides effective camouflage in its rocky environments. Notably, its paws and tail base are adorned with vibrant yellow markings, lending the species its name.
Found in rugged, rocky landscapes like cliffs, gorges, and rocky outcrops, the yellowfooted rock wallaby exhibits exceptional agility in navigating challenging terrains. Their diet mainly consists of grasses, supplemented by various herbs, shrubs, and leaves.
These creatures are crepuscular, meaning they are most active during dawn and dusk, and will seek refuge in rocky crevices or caves during the day to escape the heat. Socially inclined, they form small groups, or mobs, typically led by a dominant male with several females and their offspring. Female wallabies have a pouch where they nurture and carry their underdeveloped young, known as joeys, for an extended period.
Classified as “Near Threatened” by the IUCN, the yellow-footed rock wallaby faces threats such as habitat loss, competition with introduced species, and predation. Many of the animals on O’Reilly covers are endangered; all of them are important to the world.
