There is no such thing as a "normal" kangaroo, given that there are over 60 species of kangaroo. However, differences between tree kangaroos and the animal most commonly thought of as kangaroos (Red kangaroos and Grey kangaroos) are:
Tree kangaroos, although arboreal, are fully members of the kangaroo family. They are macropods, like kangaroos, and members of the family Macropodidae. This family includes wallabies, wallaroos, Red Kangaroos, Grey Kangaroos, potoroos, quokkas, rat-kangaroos and pademelons. They are marsupials, giving birth to undeveloped young which then continue their development in the mother's pouch.
Tree kangaroos are arboreal-dwelling members of the kangaroo family, spending much of their time feeding and resting in trees. This is quite unlike Red Kangaroos, Grey kangaroos, Wallabies, Pademelons and so on which are strictly ground-dwelling, and cannot climb at all.
Tree kangaroos are smaller and stockier than the larger kangaroo species, and more agile. They have stronger front legs to assist with climbing, and longer tails to help with balance.
Most species of kangaroos are found only in Australia. Tree kangaroos, on the other hand, are found in far northern Australia, and also on the island of New Guinea.
There are ten species of tree kangaroo found in Australia and/or New Guinea. They are:
