14.01.2022 Can you find the ringtail possum? Some facts about Ringtail Possums: * Ringtails are often found in hollow logs where they build their nests (dreys) out of sticks, bark and grass. ... * Ringtails LOVE to eat young eucalyptus leaves, they also eat flowers, shrubs, wattle, Cyprus pines and fruits. They are particularly fond of roses and blueberries. * As with most eucalypt eating natives, Ringtails can become super fat if they are fed too many treats, this is why we always recommend a natural diet. * Ringtail possums are highly sociable and thrive in groups often made up of at least one male and two females. * Ringtail possums are prey for a number of animals including cats, owls, eagles and foxes. If you find a ringtail possum please call us and one of our dedicated volunteers will advise you of what to do next!

We want to give a massive thank yo...u to everyone who has donated and crafted items for us, we honestly cannot thank you all enough it wouldn’t be possible without all of you wonderful people and businesses. We are so close to our goal and we can’t wait to share the next few months with you all, there will be updates every step of the way!
