Great to have confirmation that Long-nosed Bandicoot has survived the fire - Would appreciate any further sightings

User's notes

Distinctive conical digging in ferny wet sclerophyll forest regenerating after January fire. About 7 cm deep. Suspect Long-nosed Bandicoot (observed one of these pre fire on Cotter Hut Road about 7 km away as the crow flies)
