Incredible news A once-extinct marsupial has been released in Australia after being bred for survival. The eastern barred bandicoot was declared extinct in the wild in 1991 after the population dwindled to just 60 living in a rubbish tip in Victoria by the late 1980s. Previous attempts to reintroduce it have failed because of inbreeding. []
