Well, it all depends on which national symbol you are referring to. I have provided a link in the related links section below to the Official Australian Government website where they talk about the symbols of Australia.

Note that the kangaroo is NOT an official symbol.

Australia's national symbol is the Golden wattle, and its national stone is the opal. These are the only officially recognised national symbols for the entire country. No animal is Australia's national symbol. However, many animals are associated with Australia: the the most commonly associated with Australia are the kangaroo, the emu and the koala. None of these is regarded as a national symbol.

Australia has no official animal symbol. Its national floral emblem is the Golden Wattle, and its national gemstone is the opal. The flag itself features the Southern Cross, a constellation often associated with Australia.

The Australian coat of arms features the kangaroo and the emu, but neither of these is an official national symbol.
