Although several kuka irititja species have been targeted for conservation, foremost among these was the black-footed Rock Wallaby (

As the authors claim, this kind of unique teeth replacement system, which occurs also only in the species of the manatee genus Trichechus and in the pygmy rock-wallaby
Petrogale concinna, is a convergent mechanism which combines specific dental traits, as dental mesial drift, delayed eruption and the occurrence of supernumerary molars.

As well as large Antilopine Kangaroos (Macropus antilopinus), the surrounding rock country was home to the Black Wallaroo (Macropus bernadus), the Short-eared Rock Wallaby (
Petrogale brachyotis), and the Nabarlek (Peradorcus concinna).
The most successful species recovery programs incorporate many components; the work being done with yellow-footed rock wallabies (
Petrogale xanthopus xanthopus) involves three of the most important ones: collaboration, conservation, and community involvement.
Several medium-sized mammals have been extirpated from the park in the twentieth century, including the red hare wallaby (Lagorchestes hirsutus), the short-nosed digging rat kangaroo (Bettongia lesueur)--both of them considered rare species--as well as the brush-tailed possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) and the blackfooted rock wallaby (
