 The koala ("Phascolarctos cinereus") and the squirrel glider ("Petaurus norfolcensis"), are arboreal marsupials broadly distributed in Eastern Australian forests and woodlands.Arboreal marsupials rely on habitat which is influenced by the size and species of trees present, the soil nutrients, amount of rainfall, and climate.The squirrel glider and other glider species found in the park specifically rely on the shelter of tree hollows and on flowering Acacia and Banksia genus shrubs for food.
