So good to hear @Kelly123456 We've often wondered what happened to this little glider. And thanks to ACT Wildlife, Sylvie's carer and the Tidbinbilla Rangers for their all-important part in this. Tim and Barbara.

Not sure if you'll see this but thought you'd like to know this glider spent a few nights getting warmed up and then was released back in Tidbinbilla where it was found. I volunteer with ACT Wildlife and I have looked up the record for this glider. The carer named her Sylvie. Thanks for saving her.

Ha ha Neil, not quite, but I was one of the five 'Senior Ecologists' until I retired in late 2016.

I didn’t Don but I could dig it
up and take a picture of it
Is there a reason behind the photo? If for identification I have operated a business called act possum removal for nearly 20 years and I have dealt with quite a few colonies of sugar gliders at Cook, O’Connor, Aranda , Acton and red hill but never in Kingston
Were you the head biologist at parks and conservation about 25-30 years ago?
