Natural predators of the bilby include dingoes and quolls, although due to habitat loss, quolls no longer share habitats with the bilby, which has been driven further inland. Carpet pythons and Birds of Prey also pose a danger.
Feral dogs, foxes and cats are introduced predators of the bilby. Whilst not predators, introduced rabbits pose a threat to the bilby. Not only do they eat the bilbies' food, but their burrowing often causes the bilbies' burrows to cave in, trapping and suffocating the bilbies.
The dingo and foxes are the main predators of the wallaby. Feral cats can pose a threat to younger animals as well.
Wedge-tailed eagles and other birds of prey are also major predators of various rock-wallaby species, as these types of wallabies are more likely to be out on exposed rock faces.

Some of the rock wallabies which are endangered include the Brush tailed rock wallaby, Yellow footed rock wallaby and Proserpine rock-wallaby.
