A nocturnal marsupial that can be found in many parts of Australia, including urban areas. They are known for their distinctive bushy tails and ability to adapt to various habitats, from forests and woodlands to suburban gardens and parks.
Despite their common name, they are not always common in some areas due to habitat destruction. They are listed as a species of “Least Concern” by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). However, in some regions, they are considered pests due to their habit of eating fruit and vegetables from gardens and causing damage to trees.
