These nocturnal marsupials can be found in many parts of eastern Australia, however, their habitat space has shrunk dramatically since European colonisation and so have their numbers.

They eat certain types of eucalypt tree leaves, giving them somewhat of a a cough drop odour. Their thick fur protects them from the elements, and keeps them dry in the rain.

Note: These short and somewhat stocky animals are also very cute.
