Plant a tree - Save a Leadbeater's Possum

The Leadbeater's Possum is one of Victoria's most endangered species.  It is also our faunal emblem.  After the tragic fires of 2009, Leadbeater's Possum numbers are in serious decline.  Almost half of their known territory was burned in the fires, but at Yellingbo State Nature Reserve, a small but isolated population was fortunately unaffected by the fire.
