Beth, I've been trying to get NPWS to look for and save a Quoll up on Cape York, that has not yet been "described". It is officially "Unknown to Science." My ex. and I are not the only people who have seen it, but they're just not interested.
They've been telling me for years that they've probably been wiped out by Cane-toads.
However 2 Cape Yorker Forumites saw one near Weipa, a year or so ago.
It is unique, in that it has a Black and White Tail that is striped similar, [but the fur is more sparse] to a Ringtailed Lemur.
I'd love some-one to get a Pic. of one for proof. Didn't have a camera when I first saw it, in 1984.
So any-one going up the Cape, please keep your eyes open.
Cheers,
Sheba.
