The main danger to tree kangaroos is habitat loss. Destruction of rainforests means loss of habitat, and loss of food source. Unlike some other highly adaptable marsupials, tree kangaroos need a very specific habitat. Also, in parts of northern Australia, quite a few tree kangaroo deaths are caused by cars. Introduced species such as foxes and wild dogs are also a major problem.
It should be noted that not all species of tree kangaroos are endangered.
One Australian species is listed as endangered, and that is the Lumholtz's Tree kangaroo.
The Goodfellow's, Doria's, Matschie's, Tenkile and the Dingiso are the most endangered tree kangaroos in New Guinea.

∙ 10y agoThere is no such species as an albino kangaroo. Albino kangaroos, or white kangaroos, are simply variants within the normal species of kangaroos, whether it be a red kangaroo, grey kangaroo, wallaby or a pademelon. As with all albino animals, albino kangaroos have a reduced amount of melanin pigment in the eyes, skin, and hair, meaning that the normal colouring is absent. Albinos can occur in any species of kangaroo.
Thus, the reasons for an albino kangaroo's endangerment vary according to the species of kangaroo. The animal most people recognise as the kangaroo is common and not at all endangered. These animals, the Red Kangaroo and the two varieties of Grey Kangaroo, which are the largest of the marsupials, enjoy healthy populations throughout their particular habitats. Albinos have more difficulty surviving because their colouring makes them easier prey for carnivores. They are also more subject to developing blindness, and skin cancers. Apart from that, the usual reasons for endangerment of species in Australia is habitat loss and the introduction of non-native predators.
