A Goodfellow's Tree Kangaroo sitting on a branch with a joey in its pouch, displaying rich chestnut-brown and golden-yellow fur, rounded ears, and strong forelimbs adapted for climbing.
A close-up of a Goodfellow's Tree Kangaroo joey peering out from foliage, showing its golden-brown fur, round face, blue eyes, and small rounded ears.
A kangaroo that lives in trees. Not a joke. An actual kangaroo that climbs.
Tree kangaroos evolved from ground-dwelling ancestors but went back up into the canopy millions of years ago. They can leap 9 metres between branches and drop 18 metres to the ground!
