If you need to remove a sick wallaby from an area, do not attempt to hold it around the neck. You need to get a sack or blanket, and lay the animal on that before wrapping it securely in a bundle.
If you are unsure how to pick up a wallaby, you should not be attempting to pick one up at all, especially since they are protected native animals of Australia, which require a carers' licence to keep for any reason. Wallabies are not pets, and do not like to be held.
