Summary
The Eastern Barred Bandicoot is one of Australia's most endangered species, now considered extinct in Victoria's wild. The destruction of over 99% of its native grassland habitat, plus predation from introduced foxes, cats and dogs and competition with rabbits, has caused devastating results. Conservation Volunteers Australia has partnered with the Eastern Barred Bandicoot Recovery Team to reinstate a series of protected native habitats for Bandicoot breeding and reintroduction.
