Introduced animals in New Zealand

Why is it a paradise for possums in New Zealand
By Opeti




Possum in Australia
Possums in New Zealand
Australia was very hot in summers and very cold in winters. So lots of possums died.

Australia had bush fires every year so lots of possums died.

Australia had lots of predators like pythons and dingoes that would eat possums.

Because of harsh conditions possum mum would give birth to one possum in  a year.
New Zealand has mild
Climate.


New Zealand does not have bushfires.

Possums are on the top of the food chain  in New
Zealand.They eat most animals but there is no one to eat them.

Possum mother would give birth to 2 joeys in one year.
