24.01.2022 Charles Darwin University PhD candidate Alyson Stobo-Wilson’s work with the Northern Savanna Glider continues in the Edith falls area at Nitmiluk National Park.... With assistance from Park Rangers and volunteers, Alyson has been measuring, tagging and tracking the tiny marsupials to paint a clearer picture of the new species and its ecology, and help improve its conservation prospects. Check out The Northern Savanna Glider or @savanna_glider on Twitter to get updates on this project.

23.01.2022 86g of cuteness. This sugar glider was another victim of barbed wire. He has a fair amount of damage but we hope he will be releasable once it has healed.

20.01.2022 It's been a long time between posts but we finally have some exciting news to share, the savanna glider is now officially recognised as a distinct species. https://theconversation.com/a-rare-discovery-we-found-the-s



18.01.2022 Impressive footage of one of our relatives

18.01.2022 A little something to brighten your day. This 20g juvenile glider was trapped this morning on Melville Is by PhD student Alyson Stobo-Wilson. Isn't he sweet.

17.01.2022 Took the opportunity to film before the cage got decorated with bush Tucker. He will be reunited with his family this week and will hopefully not become a barbed wire victim again.



16.01.2022 We are pretty cool!

14.01.2022 It's been a busy field season for PhD student Alyson and her volunteers. Here are some videos she has shared of the cute critters trapped on Melville Island over the last couple of months.

13.01.2022 After a few months off from fieldwork we've started trapping again, this time in remnant bushland around Palmerston. This morning we caught this beautiful savanna glider, she had two very small pouch young nestled in her pouch. Unfortunately, we did also see a cat leaving the area as we arrived. Last year, gliders were brought into carers at record numbers with cats being the main culprit for injury. Living in Darwin we are fortunate to have ample wildlife at our back door, but please help protect it by keeping your cats inside. We want to see many more of these adorable faces in our local bushland for years to come

12.01.2022 Cuteness overload! Check out our furry cousins!

11.01.2022 Recent research on Melville Island paints a sad picture for the small mammals on the island. The savanna glider is also found on Melville Island, and is one of the main field sites for PhD student Alyson Stobo-Wilson. Hugh's research, outlined in this article, highlights the importance of understanding the ecology of the savanna glider and it's population status. Hopefully effective management can be put in place in order to protect all species into the future. http://mobile.abc.net.au//wildlife-numbers-plumme/8329866

02.01.2022 Barbed Wire, again and again. This little sugar glider is another victim of barbed wire fencing found in Berry Springs and a reminder to create wildlife friendl...y fencing by either bunt the barbed wire or better to remove at least the highest line and replace it with plain wire so our wildlife doesn't have to suffer.

02.01.2022 Look who we caught on camera! , he was checking out the bait and not actually in the nest box......LFW property, Berry Springs area. Sugar glider. Later this mo...nth we will be swapping over our nest box cameras so other landholders can install them and see what arboreal mammals they have / are using the boxes. See more

01.01.2022 Great conservation work for our Mahogany cousins.
