The tree kangaroo is a unique marsupial native to the rainforests of New Guinea and surrounding islands. Unlike their ground-dwelling relatives, tree kangaroos have adapted to life in the trees, featuring strong limbs and a long tail for balance. They primarily feed on leaves, fruits, and flowers, using their sharp claws to climb and navigate through the branches. Tree kangaroos are known for their distinctive appearance, with a stocky body and a thick fur coat that can vary in color. They are generally solitary animals, but some species may be seen in small groups. Conservation efforts are important, as habitat loss threatens their populations.
