Climbing? Target training? Crunching carrots? It’s impossible not to smile watching Som do it all. Som (pronounced like ‘roam’) is a Matschie’s tree kangaroo. Only about 2,500 Matschie’s tree kangaroos remain in the wild in their only known habitat: The Huon Peninsula of northeastern Papua New Guinea. Threatened by logging and mining exploration, the marsupial arboreal species is considered endangered by the International Union for the Conservancy of Nature (IUCN). CMZoo supports the Matschie’s

Kangaroo training session at Rockhampton Zoo Our keepers do training sessions like this one several times a week with the roos. Not only is stretching up good for veterinary checks, because it shows the roo's chest and stomach area, but it also gives a more accurate result when weighing the roos. A lot of a kangaroo's weight is in its tail, and stretching up moves their weight over onto their feet, giving a more thorough result on the scales. Some of our mob prefer sweet potato chunks as treats,
