Possums and Malleefowl: Recent wildlife discoveries across Australia

Australian Wildlife Conservancy

Australian Wildlife Conservancy (AWC) teams around the country have made some exciting discoveries recently, with a number of new wildlife records across our sanctuaries and partnership sites. A rare possum, a Malleefowl, and an unexpected little marsupial carnivore are among the latest detections made by AWC as part of Australia’s largest program of biodiversity surveys.

This Scaly-tailed Possum is the first ever caught by scientists in the Northern Territory. AWC ecologists carried out the targeted survey at Bullo River Station.Conor Nest/AWC
