Thanks Wombey - I have changed the format and hope the photo is visible now

Thank you. Definitely a rugosa but based on the colour I might suggest it is not the local melanistic variety and may be an animal brought into the ACT from elsewhere.

Yes I agree with John. Almost all the ACT and nearby region are the black form.

It was in his backyard, not sure for how long and I don't know how it got there. I was surprised to see this one in Red Hill.
