How many babies does a kangaroo have in a lifetime?

If an Eastern Grey Kangaroo doe only raises its first joey to the pouch-emergent stage by 3.5 years of age, and finishes breeding at around 12 years of age, she is only likely to produce 8 young in her lifetime. If 75% of joeys are likely to die, this leaves only 2 young to survive to adulthood.
