There is an utter lack of wildlife, save for the elusive cuscus, a beady-eyed marsupial the size of a house cat. |
|
At Kinnaird's research station, the cuscus was something of a star in her own right. |
|
Even a bear cuscus, a woolly marsupial found in Sulawesi's forests and normally a leaf-eater, won't turn down a succulent fig. |
|
The Common Spotted Cuscus is a cuscus, a marsupial that lives in the Cape York region of Australia, New Guinea, and nearby smaller islands. |
|
The exception is the marsupial cuscus Phalanger orientalis which first appears in the fauna assemblages about 9000 years ago. |
|
It also contains the first evidence of the cuscus, Phalanger orientalis at the site and the introduction of obsidian from West New Britain. |
|
All marsupials, including but not limited to, Tasmanian devil, bandicoot, kangaroo, wallaby, opossum, wombat, koala bear, cuscus, numbat and pigmy, sugar and greater glider. |
|
Nocturnal marsupials, such as cuscus and bandicoots, make up the majority of the mammal species, and introduced mammals include Malayan civets and wild pigs. |
|
The rainforests of the Iron Range National Park support species that are also found in New Guinea, including the eclectus parrot and southern common cuscus. |
