Fuzzy the Phascogale

In the hide of Duck Rocks amongst the silver-leafed Salmon gums, lay Fuzzy the Red-tailed phascogale in his hollow. He was having a lovely day before tragedy hit! A bushfire was heading his way. He has to escape but as he does, he runs into more trouble.


The Hotspot Heroes Enviro-Stories Program involved schools from the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia learning about the biodiversity, threatened species and feral animals in the wheatbelt area. A Hotspot Hero is someone who is willing to stand up and take action to help prevent our threatened plants and animals from fading into oblivion.
