Plaspanel provides enviro-home for environmentally threatened species.
Healesville Sanctuary is now the home of new environmentally friendly, breeding enclosures for endangered Mountain Pygmy-possums. Built using recycled Plaspanel, the enclosures provide a safe, hygienic home for these tiny creatures. The Mountain Pygmy-possum is found only in Victoria and NSW in snow-covered alpine and sub-alpine regions. It is one of the world’s only hibernating marsupials and its numbers are declining due to climate change, habitat destruction and fox and cat predation.>> more |
