(I hope I put this in the right place)

I'm doing an assignment for college and need to find out about the Matschie's Tree-kangaroo. I have found some information but am stuck on some things.

1. What size enclosure do they need?
2. What environmental enrichment do they need?
3. What organisation co-ordinates the worldwide breeding program?

I did try to researching the above but found conflicting information. Any information you could give would be greatly appreciated.
 
Hi Bobby,

I had to do some similar research for my degree and it is not easy to find the relevant info. There is a reasonably good book (Australian mammals: biology and captive management By Stephen M. Jackson) which your local library might be able to get for you. You can find extracts of it if you use Google books as your search engine.

I have quite a bit of general information on Tree Kangaroos (they are my favourite species) if you need some then send me a message and I'll try to dig out the right info for you.

Which college are you at? I am in UK and if you are close enough I may be able to lend you some relevant material.

hope this is of some help.

Rob
