wallaby because it's in Australia and I am a little rusty on my geography but I believe that's closer to Antarctica. I believe but I could be wrong.

The wallaby is more likely to live closer to Antarctica because it resides in Australia, which is geographically nearer to Antarctica, while the Cape buffalo is found in southern Africa. Although wallabies are not specifically adapted for extreme cold, they are more capable of enduring cooler temperatures compared to the heat-adapted Cape buffalo. Therefore, the wallaby aligns better with the conditions found near Antarctica.
