This is a list of estimated global populations of Marsupials species. This list is not comprehensive, as not all Marsupials have had their numbers quantified.

Common name Scientific name IUCN Red List status Trend Global population estimate (year) Population notes Range Image
Common wombat Vombatus ursinus LC IUCN Steady >915,090 (2020) [1] Only includes subpopulations from three islands ( Maria, Flinders, and Tasmania) of two subspecies (V. u. ursinus and V. u. tasmaniensis). Mainland subspecies (V. u. hirsutus) numbers are not known.
Southern hairy-nosed wombat Lasiorhinus latifrons NT IUCN Decrease 1,300,000 (2016) [2] [3]
Northern hairy-nosed wombat Lasiorhinus krefftii CR IUCN Steady 315 (2021) [4]

Eastern grey kangaroo Macropus giganteus LC IUCN Steady >12,977,181 (2021) [5] Population estimate is only for the areas within Australia where commercial harvesting occur. The actual national populations would be significantly higher.
Western grey kangaroo Macropus fuliginosus LC IUCN Increase >2,571,158 (2021) [5] Population estimate is only for the areas within Australia where commercial harvesting occur. The actual national populations would be significantly higher.
Red kangaroo Osphranter rufus LC IUCN Steady >10,848,470 (2021) [5] Population estimate is only for the areas within Australia where commercial harvesting occur. The actual national populations would be significantly higher.
Wallaroo, euro Osphranter robustus LC IUCN Steady >2,338,076 (2021) [5] Population estimate is only for the areas within Australia where commercial harvesting occur. The actual national populations would be significantly higher.
Antilopine kangaroo Osphranter antilopinus LC IUCN Decrease[ citation needed] [ data missing]
Tasmanian devil Sarcophilus harrisii EN IUCN Decrease 140,000[ citation needed]
Thylacine Thylacinus cynocephalus EX IUCN 0 (1936) [6] Last known individual died on 7 September, 1936.
Brown-eared woolly opossum Caluromys lanatus LC IUCN Decrease 160,000,000 (2019) [7]
Brown four-eyed opossum Metachirus nudicaudatus LC IUCN Steady 128,000,000 (2019) [7]
