            Petauroides volans volans     Restricted to eucalypt forests and             A small number of large arboreal
            (greater glider) – endangered woodlands with a diversity of eucalypt         hollows are present within the site

           2.3        CONNECTIVITY
           The site’s vegetation comprises both an edge and core component of a wildlife corridor which connects
           vegetation along the northern and eastern foothills of Mount Cooroora. This corridor connects
           discontinuous habitat via a series of vegetated rural residential allotments to the large extent of habitat
           contained within the Tuchekoi National Park.
