The correct term for "短尾矮袋鼠" in English is "Short-tailed dorcopsis".
Short-tailed dorcopsis is a small marsupial found primarily in New Guinea and surrounding islands. They are known for their distinctive short tail, which is significantly shorter than other species of dorcopsis. These animals have a compact body covered in dense fur, typically brown or gray in color, and a rounded head with small ears. They are herbivorous, feeding on a variety of plant materials including leaves, fruits, and flowers. Short-tailed dorcopsis are mainly solitary animals and prefer dense forest habitats for shelter and protection. They have strong hind limbs and are adept climbers, allowing them to move swiftly through trees. Unlike other kangaroo species, short-tailed dorcopsis do not possess the ability to hop, instead relying on their strong limbs for movement. Due to their small size and elusive nature, they are often difficult to spot in the wild.
