Yes, there are predators of the kangaroo. The term "kangaroo" covers over 60 species of macropods, and the smaller species are certainly subject to predation.
Kangaroo predators include man (primarily), who actively seeks to cull their numbers, followed by dingoes and wedgetail eagles.
Introduced predators such as foxes, wild dogs and feral cats are a threat to joeys.
Prior to the extinction of the thylacine (sometimes known as the Tasmanian Tiger), kangaroos would have had to defend themselves against this creature, the largest of the carnivorous marsupials.
The greatest number of Kangaroo deaths is probably due to the motor vehicle.
Smaller kangaroos, such as wallabies, rat-kangaroos (not kangaroo rats), potoroos, pademelons and bettongs are preyed upon by quolls and pythons.
