· The Leadbeater’s possum, Victoria’s fauna emblem, is now an endangered animal.
· After the 2009 bushfires there were less than 1000 left
· Also after the 2009 bushfires they had only 40-50% of their habitat left, and that is the only area in the world where they are found.
· Because of lack of sightings the Leadbeater’s possum was thought to be extinct for 52 years.
