Numbat bouncing back after more than a century of extinction from NSW wild | ABC Australia

The precious Numbat is springing back to life in far south-western NSW near Gol Gol, just over the Murray River, from Mildura. Numbats haven't been seen in NSW for over 200 years, and globally, they're even rarer than the black rhino, their near extinction caused by feral predators such as foxes and feral cats, but they are being saved, thanks to a 42 kilometre-long, two-metre-high electrified fence.
