Section of kangaroo’s trusted sleeping place (5)

I believe the answer is:

roost

'sleeping place' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'section of kangaroo's trusted' is the wordplay.
'section of' indicates a hidden word.
'ROOST' is hidden within 'kangaroos trusted'.

(Other definitions for roost that I've seen before include "Henhouse" , "residence" , "Hen's resting place" , "where fliers land" , "Place where birds rest" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
