Ein Goodfellow-Baumkänguruh greift auf einem Baum mit den Vorderpfoten nach belaubten Zweigen, zieht sie heran, reißt Blätter ab und kaut sie gründlich. Bei Möhren werden Stückchen mit den Schneidezähnen herausgebissen und gefressen. "Lappend-kauende" Trinkbewegung.

The film shows an adult female Goodfellow-tree-kangaroo in an outdoor enclosure and documents its manner of eating. Sitting on a climbing-tree it grasps tightened boughs of Robinia and maple with one or both anterior paws draws them near, tears off or bites off some leaves and is chewing them thorughly. A piece of carrot lying on the ground is seized by the anterior paws and led to the mouth; with its incissors the tree-kangaroo bites small pieces out of the carrot and eats them while sitting upright. The drinking of water may be described as laing-chewing. There are four courses of drinking movements in one second to be registrated.
