The mahogany glider is one of Australia’s most threatened mammals. It is found only in a very restricted area of coastal woodland in far north Queensland. First specimens were recorded in 1883, and then all record of the species laid unnoticed by science for more than 100 years until their rediscovery in 1989. The management of this species and its habitat require immediate and ongoing attention to prevent their continued decline towards extinction.
