Why is the Lumholtz's tree kangaroo endangered?
The Lumholtz's tree kangaroo is not endangered. Although the Lumholtz's tree kangaroo's conservation status is officially "Least Concern", it is listed as a rare species in Queensland, to which it is endemic (i.e. not found anywhere else). The main danger to the Lumholtz's Tree Kangaroo 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.
How many left of the lumholtz tree kangaroo?
