One of the world’s rarest marsupials is facing extinction in Australia, according to a new study.
Urgent action is needed to protect the Parma wallaby if future generations are to see the creature.
The Parma wallaby – also known as the white-throated wallaby – is currently listed as a ‘vulnerable’ species in Australia, while the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) classifies it as ‘near threatened’.
