THE TINIEST ANIMAL WE HAVE EVER RELEASED.
A Feather tail Glider!

WEIGHING Only 11 g, "Sq**rt" an adult returned back to the property he came from after some TLC by wonderful carer Jenni and family.

What an honour for us. What an privledge for the family where he comes from.

Living in colonies of about 30: we were warned Sq**rt may not scoot up the tree!

So yep, he jumped onto ground and hopped away!

A timely reminder to keep cats indoors, and dogs inside at night!

Australia is a marvelous environment of unique specialised animals.

Quinnies real night noises and hesitation out in the Australian bush.

She is free.
"Im about to do a brave thing Mum!"

But predators exist: hawks, owls....pythons.

A Short ear mountain possum is vocalising his territory to the new tenants!

Probably Nova who went into tree tops a few hours before Quinnie.

Good luck my girl.
Months of work by caring humans.

This part is up to them!

When the soft release possums go to the storage shed and find a cosy spot!

It was cold last night (for Qld).

Life in a forest!

Cool find. Can grow up to 14 cm!

Red Triangle slug; a mollusc.

Largest Terrestrial Australian slug!

The red triangle is around their breathing hole.

Eats microscopic algae on smooth bark, rocks and other damp surfaces.

Food for birds, frogs, reptiles and other predators.
