Tree-kangaroos are marsupials of the genus Dendrolagus, adapted for arboreal locomotion. They inhabit the tropical rainforests of New Guinea and far northeastern Queensland, Australia along with some of the islands in the region. All tree-kangaroos are considered threatened due to hunting and habitat destruction. They are the only true arboreal ...

2025年2月6日 · Our new study, published in Australian Mammalogy, has achieved a breakthrough: using thermal drones to detect these rare animals with unprecedented efficiency. Tree kangaroos are found only in the tropical rainforests of Australia and New Guinea.

Tree kangaroos are herbivores that survive on a diet of leaves, ferns, roots, and seasonal fruit. Agile climbers, these marsupials spend most of their time in the tops of the forest and move slowly, yet easily amongst the trees thanks to their strong forearms and long tails which help them to …

Hidden high in the treetops of rainforests in northeastern Australia and New Guinea are the tree kangaroos. It may be surprising to think of a kangaroo living in the trees, but there was once a time when all kangaroos resided in trees. As the species evolved, they migrated down to become ground kangaroos.

2013年11月28日 · Australia has two species of tree kangaroo, but another 15 species and subspecies – such as this Goodfellow’s tree kangaroo – are found across the Torres Strait in New Guinea. Tree kangaroos are adept at climbing; they can move their hind legs independent to one another and walk backwards – an action terrestrial kangaroos cannot perform.

2020年6月11日 · These are actions that promote the unity of a group; don’t include either displays of aggression or reproductive behaviour. Between them, the kangaroos range over most of Australia. In some areas there may be only one species while in other places several species occur. Red Kangaroo. Western Grey Kangaroo. Eastern Grey Kangaroo.
