Ist Canberra Nature Map record of Long-nosed Bandicoot. Long term post 2003 fire monitoring with wildlife cameras has also picked them up at two locations in the vicinity of this sighting.
User's notes
Though there was not much left, (very approximate 15 X 18cm) it did not look like a small wallaby so assume it might be a bettong.
