flag Chester Zoo announces birth of male Goodfellow’s tree kangaroo joey, aiding conservation efforts.

flag Chester Zoo has announced the birth of a male Goodfellow’s tree kangaroo joey, the second at the facility, born to parents Kitawa and Kayjo. flag The joey, now 1.85kg and developing in Kitawa’s pouch, is being monitored using endoscopic cameras—a breakthrough in studying the species. flag The birth supports international conservation efforts amid threats from hunting and habitat loss in Papua New Guinea. flag The zoo plans to name the joey with input from local communities and will allow visitors to see him in the Islands zone as he begins to peek out. flag Each successful birth is critical due to the species’ slow reproduction.
