I emailed tid to check that they have released only one bandicoot species into the sanctuary, ie Southern Brown (SBB). This has the fur of a SBB but at that unusual angle its ears seem a bit long.

It was the only angle it would let me take a picture of. I think it was SBB released at Tidbinbilla.

Got reply. SBB is only bandicoot recorded inside Sanctuary so far. However LNB have turned up outside. Juveniles of both species can move through the wire, so in future it would be possible to get SBB outside and LNB inside.
