Expedition in New Guinea
Jack Bushong ’25 embarked on an expedition to try to find the Wondiwoi tree kangaroo (Dendrolagus magri), whose range is restricted to its namesake mountains in Indonesian New Guinea. Although he did not end up locating the tree kangaroo, the trip led to the discovery of three putative new frog species and two undescribed taxa of birds. His group also extended the known range of several bird species and a ringtail possum species by more than 100 miles. Read about his journey in the March-April 2025 issue.
