{red]The long-footed potoroo is one of a group of marsupial species also known as "rat kangaroos.' It weighs 1.6 - 2.2 kg (3.5 - 4.8 lb). The long-footed potoroo is found in a variety of forest types, ranging from montane wet sclerophyll forests at over 1000 m altitude to lowland sclerophyll forest at 150 m altitude. It appears to require a densely vegetated gully for shelter and more open forest where most food is obtained. Its diet is principally the fruiting bodies of a variety of underground and partially underground fungi that grow in association with tree roots. Some invertebrates and a small amount of plant material are also eaten. The long-footed potoroo is terrestrial and nocturnal and shelters during the day in a temporary nest in ferns or thickets of wire grass.
