No 1:  Possum

Possums are iconic Aussie animals. Their cute and fluffy appearance coupled with their non-aggressive nature makes them firm wildlife favorites.

They are mostly tree-dwellers, but sometimes they come down to the ground looking for food.

These beautiful night-time visitors may thud around on our rooftops or cheekily nibble our garden herbs, but we’re so lucky to have such amazing animals right in our own backyards! 

负鼠是澳洲颇具有代表性的动物，他们以一副毛绒绒，可爱样子，还有他们温顺的天性，让他们成为最受欢迎的野生动物。他们大部分时间都居住在树上，偶尔也会下来找东西吃。

这些美丽的夜行游客也许还会在我们的房顶上上串下跳，或者在我们花园里东瞅瞅西嗅嗅。 要是他们能光顾我们的后院还真是挺幸运的呢！

No 2:  sugar glider

Sugar glider is tiny marsupial. Its name "sugar glider" originates from the fact that this animal likes to eat sugar and that it can glide through the air. Sugar gliders are very social and enjoy company of people. Because of that, they are often kept as pets.

蜜袋鼯是一种小型的有袋类动物。 它之所以叫“sugar glider” (蜜糖 滑翔机)是因为他们喜欢吃甜的东西，并且他们可以在天上随意滑行。蜜袋鼯是一种喜欢群居，喜欢人陪伴的家伙，因此，他们也经常被当成宠物养在家里

No 3:  Kookaburra
