What is Boongarry?
“What is Boongarry?” you ask… Boongarry is an indigenous name given to the lesser-known but highly vulnerable
Lumholtz Tree Kangaroo (Dendrolagus lumholtzi), an arboreal macropod found in Wet Tropic World Heritage Rainforest of Tropical North Queensland. It was the similarly unique nature of the business’ services and Far North Queensland heritage that inspired the use of this species to represent the veterinary, conservation and training elements run through Boongarry.
