Do kangaroos climb trees?

Yes, if they are of the genus Dendrolagus , diprotodont marsupials of the Macropodidae family. Commonly called tree kangaroos , they live in the humid forests of New Guinea , in northeast Queensland, in Australia, and on nearby islands, almost always in mountainous areas, except for the species Dendrolagus spadix , which is typical of the plains. Tree kangaroos are not very large – 4 to 13 kg in weight and 60 to 95 cm in size – but they do have a fairly long non-prehensile tail.

They are well adapted to life in the trees, where they are very agile and loose, and are capable of jumping from branch to branch of up to ten meters . On the contrary, these kangaroos are quite clumsy and slow when walking on the ground, since their anatomy forces them to lean exaggeratedly forward to compensate for the effect of the tail.
