As we enter the third millennium man's
effect on our native species, both flora and fauna,
has become a global issue. Environmentally and biologically.
The sugar glider, like
so many other species in Tasmania, faces an uncertain
future unless we step in now to help sustain colonies
and preserve the ecosystems they rely on.
In this Tasmanian drought year, rehabilitation of
injured gliders is a vital component. |

Foreward
This website is the culmination of my six month journey
into the world of the sugar glider in Tasmania and its
silent battle against the inevitable, a diminished and
exposed ecosystem.
My most conclusive observation was the glider's vulnerability,
but my most constructive, was the realisation that it
is still within our grasp to prevent an irrepairable
decline in glider colonies. Consequently I decided the
role of this site would be to reveal the current and
future strategies designed to minimise that decline.
