Description:

Tropical agile wallabies, Wallabia agilis (Gould) reared in a cool climate had a pouch-life which lasted about seven months, during which they showed periodic changes in growth rates. An exponential function fitted the overall pattern of growth of individuals, and an additional cosine function the periodic growth about it. Tropikalne młode wallabie smukłe, Wallabia agilis (Gould) hodowane w chłodnym klimacie, spędzają w torbie matki około siedmiu miesięcy. W tym czasie młode wykazały regularne oscylacyjne zmiany wzrostu. Dobrym przybliżeniem ogólnego wzrostu była zwykła nieskomplikowana funkcja logarytmiczna, ale funkcja kosinusowa lepiej oddawała periodyczność wzrostu.
