This is a list of estimated global populations of Marsupials species. This list is not comprehensive, as not all Marsupials have had their numbers quantified.

Common wombat	Vombatus ursinus	LC IUCN		>915,090 (2020)[1]	Only includes subpopulations from three islands (Maria, Flinders, and Tasmania) of two subspecies (V. u. ursinus and V. u. tasmaniensis). Mainland subspecies (V. u. hirsutus) numbers are not known.

Eastern grey kangaroo	Macropus giganteus	LC IUCN		>12,977,181 (2021)[5]	Population estimate is only for the areas within Australia where commercial harvesting occur. The actual national populations would be significantly higher.

Wallaroo, euro	Osphranter robustus	LC IUCN		>2,338,076 (2021)[5]	Population estimate is only for the areas within Australia where commercial harvesting occur. The actual national populations would be significantly higher.
