"Look at those tracks!We must have just missed the Grey
Kangaroo. No worries, the tracks can help us
find it.
Also, these tracks show us how a kangaroo hops
while using its tail on the ground for balance."
Yellow-Bellied Glider
Sometimes the only way to indentify a
marsupial is by using your ears.For example, the Yellow-Bellied
Glider is more often heard than seen.It makes a very loud squeak followed
by gurgling.If you hear that call look up
quickly! It usually makes that call when it
glides from tree to tree.
Green Ring-tailed Possum
The search for marsupials does not have to stop at
night. A spotlight can be shined in the forest to
look for eye shine. When you see two glowing
dots staring back at you, you know you have found
something! The Green Ring-tailed Possum isactive at night, and is often found climbing
in trees.
