FIELD GUIDE
The story
There are two kangaroos called Matilda, and merging them is the mistake this record exists to prevent.
A large seated red kangaroo known as Matilda stands on Wills Street in Charleville. That much is established. What is not established is who built her, when, or why she carries the name.

WHAT TO EXPECT
A long-standing Charleville Big Thing and streetscape landmark. Recent photography continues to identify Matilda in Charleville, while current local and specialist Big Things guides place the sculpture on Wills Street.
ACCESS
Matilda the Big Kangaroo is independently documented at 47 Wills Street, Charleville, and its object position is map-checked. Murweh Shire current visitor material confirms a public carpark on Wills Street, and Council has documented formal CBD parking on Wills Street. PBT still withholds direct navigation until the preferred exact parking point for Matilda is independently map-checked; do not treat the sculpture coordinate itself as a vehicle destination.
