Researchers at Mt Gibson Wildlife Sanctuary in Australia have made an exciting discovery—a litter of newborn western quolls, once nearly extinct. These spiky marsupial carnivores, once found across Australia, had dwindled to small populations in the southwest. Thanks to reintroduction efforts, the quolls are thriving, with new babies signaling a growing population. Ecologist Georgina Anderson reported that regular monitoring shows their successful adaptation, offering renewed hope for the species’ future in Australia.
