Is a tree kangaroo a carnivore omnivore or herbivore?

It depends on the species. The animals most commonly known as kangaroos are herbivores, primarily eating grass and other vegetation. Besides grass, they eat young shoots and tender leaves of native shrubs. They enjoy grains as well, but being herbivorous, they do not eat any other animals. Kangaroos are grazing animals, and they will regurgitate their food to chew like cattle chew their cud. These kangaroos include the larger red and grey kangaroos, as well as wallaroos, wallabies, quokkas, potoroos and bettongs/rat-kangaroos. Bettongs also eat fungi and tubers.Tree kangaroos eat leaves, and sometimes fruit. Some varieties of tree kangaroo are omnivores, eating insects and other invertebrates. The Goodfellow's tree kangaroo has been known to eat eggs and small birds as well.Smaller varieties of kangaroos such as the musky-rat kangaroo are omnivores, eating fruits, seeds, fungi insect larvae and small invertebrates such as grasshoppers and beetles.

When the kangaroo leaves the pouch does it close up?

No, the pouch is not sealable. Female kangaroos also spend their lives in a state of almost constant pregnancy. They have the ability to suspend the development and birth of an embryo if there is already a joey in the pouch, or if food is scarce. the new joey is then born at a better time. Sometimes the mother kangaroo has two different aged joeys in the pouch simultaneously, and feeds them each a different type of milk according to each one's nutritional needs.
