Yes. However, not all species of tree kangaroos are endangered.
For those that are, the main danger is habitat loss as a result of human activity. 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. It is the people driving carelessly that cause the problem.
Introduced species such as foxes and wild dogs are also a major problem. These species were introduced by people.
