How scientists are rewriting the future of the tiny mountain possum
The critically endangered mountain pygmy possum, weighing as much as a golf ball, faces extinction due to climate change impacting its alpine habitat and food sources. Researchers are implementing a radical breeding program in a warmer lowland sanctuary to re-acclimatize the species, offering a new approach to conservation in the climate era.
