Osphranter robustus woodwardi does not occur locally, see:- https://bie.ala.org.au/species/https://biodiversity.org.au/afd/taxa/f4a12672-e5f8-4942-81cb-f453ce642f18

Either Sambar or Eastern Grey Kangaroo. I suspect the former but more evidence would help, e.g. fresher droppings, photos without the grass in the way, and scale.

Hi Mary, When I download the image and zoom in, I can see at least three things that might be a glider or might be leaves. In short I cant see it. The AI (Carbon) says it can see one. I'm unsure how to interpret that. However I think you know the species from other sightings so I will verify this record, based on your verbal description. The only local species of mid-size grey glider is Petaurus notatus, Krefft's Glider (which we formerly called Sugar Glider).
