PROVIDENCE, RI (WLNE) — The Roger Williams Park Zoo is celebrating a special birthday on Christmas Eve. Keweng, an endangered Matschie’s tree-kangaroo, turned five years old Tuesday. The Zoo celebrated by giving Keweng “greens and treats.” According to Roger Williams Park Zoo, these animals are known for spending most of their lives in trees, with “powerful limbs, long-gripping claws, and a long tail” which help them easily move from branch to branch. Matschie’s tree kangaroos are native to Papua New Guinea, and can live 15 to 20 years. Categories: News, Providence, Rhode Island
