the kangaroos never forgot their roots, and continued to work in canada off and on through the years; in addition to stampede wrestling, the team also worked for nwa all-star wrestling based in vancouver, british columbia. while working for all-star wrestling, the kangaroos were involved in a heated storyline with don leo jonathan and roy mcclarty that sold out arenas all across the territory. on 25 may 1964 the kangaroos won the vancouver version of the nwa canadian tag team championship, and immediately had to fend off the challenges of jonathan and mcclarty. during one infamous match in winnipeg, the kangaroos made stan stasiak an "honorary kangaroo" for the night (complete with bush hat and all) for a six-man tag team match against jonathan, mcclarty and karl gotch. during the match the kangaroos' cheating tactics aggravated the crowd so much that the fans threw chairs at the team. the kangaroos attempted to hide under the ring to escape the flying chairs, but rabid fans tried to light the ring apron on fire to "smoke out" the kangaroos. peace was restored before anyone got seriously hurt and jonathan and mcclarty defeated the kangaroos for the canadian tag team titles, only to lose them back to the team from "down under" less than a month later. the fabulous kangaroos held the canadian tag team titles a total of four times while working for all-star wrestling, losing them for the final time on 17 may 1965 to the team of do leo jonathan and jim hardy. for the better part of a year the kangaroos had been double champions, holding both the canadian tag team titles and the all-star version of the nwa international tag team titles.

tree-kangaroos inhabit the tropical rainforests of new guinea, far northeastern australia, and some of the islands in the region, in particular, the schouten islands and the raja ampat islands. although most species are found in mountainous areas, several also occur in lowlands, such as the aptly named lowlands tree-kangaroo. most tree-kangaroos are considered threatened due to hunting and habitat destruction. because much of their lifestyle involves climbing and jumping between trees, they have evolved an appropriate method of locomotion. tree-kangaroos thrive in tree tops as opposed to terrestrial kangaroos which survive on mainland australia. two species of tree-kangaroos are found in australia, bennett's ("d. bennetianus"), which is found north of the daintree river and lumholtz's ("d. lumholtzi"). tree-kangaroos have adapted better to regions of high altitudes. at least 14 known subspecies of tree-kangaroo are living in papua new guinea and australia. tree-kangaroos must find places comfortable and well adapted for breeding, as they only give birth to one joey per year. they are known to have one of the most relaxed and leisurely birthing seasons. they breed cautiously in treetops during monsoon season. their habitats are breeding grounds for danger as they can easily fall prey to their natural predators, amethystine pythons, which also climb and live in the forest treetops. tree-kangaroos are known to be able to live in both mountainous regions and low-land locations.
