Hi @Klrvs, I'm VERY sceptical about the ID by a vet. It would be the first member of the species ever recorded in or around Canberra. And R. fuscipes is not known to occur in suburbs. So can you please provide more information: Who identified it? Can I have the carcass? On what technical basis was it identified as R. fuscipes? (For example it is well known that tails of Black Rats are longer than head-body length, and tails of Bush Rats are shorter, but it is not well known that this relationship does not apply with juveniles).

That's a good idea. I can empty the plastic bags that people discard in the park when no-one is watching.
