OMG OMG OMG!!!! Now I know why Wallabee is called like that!!! Do you remember the kangaroo, well, there is a familiar of the kangaroo called wallaby and the young wallabys are joeys... this is the info from wikipedia: A wallaby is any of about thirty species of macropod (Family Macropodidae). It is an informal designation generally used for any macropod that is smaller than a kangaroo or wallaroo that has not been given some other name.
Very small forest-dwelling wallabies are known as pademelons (genus Thylogale) and dorcopsises (genera Dorcopsis and Dorcopsulus). The name wallaby comes from the Eora Aboriginal tribe who were the original inhabitants of the Sydney area. Young wallabies are known as "joeys", like many other marsupials.Every day you discover something new ;D Attachments:

Yes X3 And his last name "Beetles" refers to the band the Beatles. Therefore Wally has been given the bolwcut haircut, just like the Beatles's stereotypical hairstyles during the sixties - seventies. The Beatles are also referred to as "The Fab Four". For that reason Wally has been given the codenumbuh 'four' and his family exists out of four members =] Or so I've heard XD
