[http://masonstours.blogspot.com/2004_10_01_archive.html Lots of Striped 
Possums have been seen, on all areas of the tracks.There are still lots of dead 
trees around after the 99 cyclone, and this means there are many larvae to be 
found, which Stripey Possums love. We often hear the noisy little fellows 
before we see them, as they make a real racket searching for food. ]

[http://masonstours.blogspot.com/2007/08/nightwalk-sightings-summary-junejuly-07.html There have been good Striped Possum sightings, with one sighting having the possum only a couple of metres away. It was a young possum, and didn’t seem to scared of us at all! There are still lots of dead trees around after the 99 cyclone, and this means there are many larvae to be found, which Stripey Possums love.]

[http://www.jennifermarohasy.com/blog/archives/001756.html I photographed this 
striped possum (Dactylopsila trivirgata) at Cooper Creek Wilderness on the 21st 
October, 2006, and I was very pleased to see that this photograph of a striped 
possum, was in fact, two. Sparsely distributed throughout the wet tropics and 
along the east coast of Cape York (Australia), the species is spectacularly 
acrobatic and most frequently found after hearing it crash into overhead 
vegetation.  It forages by welting rotten tree material and listening carefully 
for beetle larvae, which it extricates with its specialised elongate fourth 
digit on the front feet.]
