Whilst tree kangaroos can leap agilely from tree branch to branch, they do jump down from trees. One of the main dangers to tree kangaroos comes from being hit by cars.

Only tree kangaroos are able to leap between tree branches. The other 60 or so species of kangaroos do not climb trees.

How do kangaroos conserve energy as they run?

Yes. Kangaroos are able to hop long distances at a high speed, expending very little energy. They are very energy-efficient, and this is linked directly to the physical action of bringing their hind legs up with each hop. Every hop literally refills the lungs. Kangaroos also have large, strong tendons in their hind legs which act as "springs". The springing motion requires less energy than running does, so kangaroos are able to bound for longer distances than other mammals with the standard four legs can run.
