Скачать или смотреть Greater Glider Nesting Box Installs

Greater gliders are native to the forests of south-east Australia and are the largest of Australia's Glider species. They have a unique gliding flight path which allows them to leap and propel themselves through the trees, rarely touching the ground. They have a special diet consisting of mainly mature Eucalyptus species, making them highly reliant on large old growth forests. They make their homes in hollow bearing trees which can take over a hundred years for the correct habitat to form - making competition for these hollows extremely high.

Tree Needs works with local councils and the community to install nesting boxes that are specially designed for the Greater Glider to reduce the number of animals killed by climate change, logging & fire and to help support the growth of their population. The Greater Glider has been recently listed as critically endangered by the Victorian government after the 2020-21 bushfires wiped out much of their habitat.
