The second part covers the medicine of specific taxa of Australian native mammals. Detailed information on taxonomy, distribution, biology, anatomy, physiology, reproduction, husbandry, nutrition, physical and chemical restraint, clinical pathology, hand-rearing, diseases, zoonoses, therapeutics, reproductive management and surgery is included. This practical, one-source reference is complemented by detailed photographs and illustrations, as well as tables listing reproductive and physiological data, diets, haematology and biochemistry values, and drug formularies.

Book excerpt: There are around 23 native species of possums in Australia. The possums are divided into three major families: Ringtail possums and gliders from the family called petauridae; Brushtail possums and cuscuses from the family called phalangeridae; and Pygmy possums and feathertail gliders from the family burramyidae. This story is about a brushtail possum (trichosurus vulpecula). In the wild, the brushtail possum will eat leaves, blossoms and fruits, but in urban areas it will eat almost anything. "At the bottom of the damp dark stairs in a hidden sunken garden lair, there lived a family of brushtail possums. This is the story of a hungry one named Jotham." Written, illustrated and printed in Australia using environmentally friendly technology with all profits reinvested into Australian sustainable programs.
