Vote #1: Brush-tailed Phascogale
Brush-tailed Phascogales are nocturnal and rarely seen. However, numbers are declining and threats such as habitat loss, fragmentation and feral predators, are putting it at risk.
The Arid Zone Conservation Base project on our remote Pullen Pullen Reserve in Western Queensland is forging ahead and we look forward to completion as spring gives way to summer heat and rains.
As any Outback traveller will attest, the Arid Riverine landscape represents one of Australia’s most astonishing bioregions and Bush Heritage have been actively involved in conservation across this landscape for many years.

Temperatures in this part of the country readily reach mid-forties and reprieve from the elements will bring our land managers, ecologists, researcher partners and volunteers a means to manage conservation activities year round.
By the generosity of our supporters we envision achieving more across this landscape to protect vulnerable and endangered Australian Wildlife and realising opportunities to share knowledge and support connection to Country for Maiawali People, the Traditional Custodians of Pullen Pullen.
