User's notes

Unfortunately another dead Shingleback with the same kind of injury as observed in spring 2016 when 4 dead Shingleback skinks were recorded on the west slope of Mt Majura within a week or so. Photos taken by Max Pouwer. Has anyone observed dead shinglebacks with similar injuries? I assume that all killed shinglebacks were females giving birth.
