The Wondiwoi tree-kangaroo is a mammal species in the genus Dendrolagus. It was known until recently from a single specimen which was collected in 1928. The only known specimen is a male weighing 9.25 kilograms (20.4 lb). D. mayri was located in the Wondiwoi Peninsula of West Papua at an elevation of 1,600 metres (5,200 ft) within montane forest. It is thought that the Wondiwoi tree-kangaroo could occupy an area of 300 square kilometres (120 sq mi). Global Wildlife Conservation, the wildlife conservation charity, lists the Wondiwoi tree-kangaroo as one of their "25 most wanted lost species".
