Some members of the snake family are very small. The smallest known member of the very wide-ranging kangaroo family is the Musky Rat-kangaroo, which is about 23cm long, and this little creature easily falls prey to snakes.

Some snakes, particularly pythons, will certainly try to eat kangaroos which are the size of wallabies. Pythons are also known predators of tree kangaroos.
