Tiny possum and the migrating moths

Julie Murphy ; illustrated by Ben Clifford

High in the Australian Alps, Possum faces the challenges of finding enough food and shelter to survive the harsh alpine winter. She will spend months hibernating under a blanket of snow. Will she last through the year to successfully raise a new family? The Mountain Pygmy-possum is a unique endangered species that's small in size but huge in appeal! Once thought to be extinct, there are now only around 2500 of these tiny survivors in the wild. They need snow and Bogong Moths to survive, and also support through great conservation work
