Fool holding a head of balloon animal (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wallaby

But I can't explain it at all!

(Other definitions for wallaby that I've seen before include "Kangaroo-like creature" , "Kind of kangaroo" , "rugby international" , "Australian marsupial" , "Jumping marsupial" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
