"A large research project studying endangered species in Australia has tallied 29 recovered species—all animals that can be safely de-listed from the country’s endangered species list.
Australia’s Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act currently lists 446 species of animals in genuine need of protection, but 29 of those are no longer in need—15 mammals, 8 birds, 4 frogs, a reptile, and a fish.
Among these critters are the golden, Western barred, and Eastern barred bandicoots, Western quoll, sooty albatross, waterfall frog, Flinder’s Range worm-lizard, yellow-footed rock wallabies, greater bilby, humpback whale, growling grass frog, Murray’s cod, and others.
Australia has been a focus of endangered species conservation for decades because so many of the animal varieties are found nowhere else.
Invasive predators introduced and living here for decades, including foxes and cane toads, have proven highly disruptive to local wildlife like bandicoots and bilbies.
Unlike America’s ESL, the EPBC doesn’t mandate that species be reviewed regularly for recovery. These large scientific papers are rare and represent moments to celebrate for Australia’s conservationists."

No thoughts, head empty.
Quenda, southern brown bandicoot, Isoodon fusciventer. They are sometimes... not very aware. I briefly thought this one was frozen in fear, but it went back to happily fossicking for food right at my feet.

“For all those roo-ting for Australian wildlife, there are reasons to jump for joy as several endangered marsupials begin the road to recovery in their native habitats.
Starting with the world’s most-endangered marsupial, 4 male and 2 female Gilbert’s potoroos were released into the great southern region of the state of Western Australia.
After being threatened with extinction from a bushfire that reduced their numbers to 100, an insurance population was established on Bald Island, and a specially fenced-off area within Waychinicup National Park.
From these populations come the six pioneers that will hopefully lead to a rapid recovery in Two Peoples Bay, on the slopes of Mount Gardner, Western Australia...
Australia’s small marsupials can breed fast if food is plentiful and they are not over-hunted by feral cats and invasive foxes, something that conservationists in New South Wales, working with the golden banicoot, are seeing.
These smaller marsupials have been locally-extirpated from the far north-west for over 100 years. Now, after being reintroduced earlier this year in May, they are breeding at exceedingly fast rates within Sturt National Park...
The reintroduction was handled by Wild Deserts, a project from the Univ. of New South Wales that reintroduced bilbies—another marsupial extinct locally for over 100 years—back to Sturt in 2020.
Indeed the AUD$40 million program has saved and expanded 7 other species beyond the golden bandicoot and bilbies, and NSW Environment Minister James Griffin said it’s not only leading Australia “but the world,” as well...
A recent trapping campaign to count how many golden bandicoot joeys were among the breeding females showed “absolutely flourishing popluations.”
Wild Deserts project coordinator Reece Pedler said the project has more species on the list, and are working through the approvals on what animals to reintroduce next year.” -via Good News Network, 12/5/22
