Might this specimen be useful for the research mentioned on the home page - "The Conservation Research Unit of ACT Government is working with partners at the Edith Cowan University to assess the impacts of anticoagulant poisons (e.g. RatSak) on non-target native species."

Yes it is of use are you able to bring it in to Mitchell or would you like us to arrange some=one to pick it up
