A Real Parent's Story
A tree kangaroo looked our son in the eye
“Our 6-year-old pressed his forehead against the glass. A tree kangaroo hopped over and stared back for 30 seconds. 'He knows me.'”

Port Moresby Nature Park is world-class. The boardwalks through the aviary are incredible — birds of paradise above you. But the tree kangaroo moment was pure magic. Such gentle, curious animals. My son was convinced they had a soul connection.
