%X The yield of carcass muscle and its weight distribution are described in male and female grey kangaroos. A redistribution of muscle-weight between forequarter and hindquarter began in males at approximately 31 kg empty body weight. Females did not undergo such a redistribution, nor did they reach the body weight at which the redistribution occurred in males. Muscle-weight was a similar proportion of body weight in both males and females.
