SeaWorld Kids Meet the Animals - Ground Cuscus Video
High School / Arts / Art
Meet Burko the cuscus and learn about life in the trees of Austrailia. This is part of SeaWorld Kids' Meet the Animals video series.
Fruit and vegetables are two Berko?s very favorite foods
Is that good, Berko? Do you like it?
Ground cuscus is found in Australia but you have to look up to see them because they prefer the branches and the canopy of the tree tops.
They use their 18 inch tail to hold on just like an extra hand or a foot.
You may notice that there is no hair in Berko?s tail.
The reason for that is he is going to use to climb.
It provides better grip.
If you are climbing a tree and your tail is covered with fur, it?s slippery.
