Hope has emerged for a species that was once on the verge of extinction.
A team of researchers in Australia is overjoyed as their endeavors to breed and increase the numbers of this species appear to have paid off.
Recently, ecologists at the Mt Gibson Wildlife Sanctuary in Australia stumbled upon a remarkable find.
Within the sanctuary, they came across a litter of newly born, spiky little creatures.
However, these aren’t ordinary creatures. They are part of the “western quolls” species, which are a particular kind of marsupial carnivore.
