The common brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) is indeed a common inhabitant of many Australian citites, and one of the few marsupials that has adapted well to the urban environment. Their close proximity to people provides a great opportunity to experience native wildlife in the backyard, however, their utilization of house roofs, bold behaviour and appetite for garden plants often leads to conflict with householders. Population numbers are sufficiently high to require ongoing management to minimise negative impacts for humans and brushtail possums alike in a socially acceptable manner. The aim of this thesis was to identify current management issues and address the need for improved and novel management strategies. The potential of slow-release implants, containing the GnRH agonist deslorelin, as a contraceptive agent for brushtail possums was tested on a captive population. Males appeared resistant to treatment, but deslorelin was found to inhibit reproduction in female brushtail possums for at least one breeding season, making it a promising tool to control fertility in some wild populations. A further aim was to trial deslorelin implants on a wild urban population, to collect more information about the urban biology of this species and to point out issues which have previously not been addressed. Close proximity and interaction of urban brushtail possums with humans and their domestic animals can increase the risk of disease exposure and transmission and influence the health of wild populations. Serosurveys showed that animals were readily exposed to Leptospira spp. and Toxoplasma gondii. This thesis also provides the first data on brushtail possum dispersal in urban areas, knowledge which is highly relevant to the development of management strategies such as fertility control. The findings from this research broaden our knowledge about urban brushtail possums and should assist wildlife authorities in developing alternative or improved management procedures.

Anecdotal reports suggested that brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) numbers had fallen sharply in the Wilkin and Young Valleys, Mount Aspiring National Park, New Zealand, in spring 2005, possibly indicating a localised disease outbreak. Attempts were made to recover sick possums from that area for post-mortem examination, to determine whether wobbly possum disease was prevalent. Trap-catch monitoring was also carried out to objectively assess possum abundance and to compare this assessment with that estimated about 2 years previously. Only one of six possums autopsied was confirmed to have wobbly possum disease. The trap-catch index was 50% lower in the Young Valley (19%) but 50% higher in the Wilkin Valley (55%) than recorded on the previous monitoring occasion. This study identified the presence of wobbly possum disease in this region, but failed to provide evidence of a recent outbreak that may have led to a fall in possum numbers. This does not preclude the possibility of disease outbreaks being contained within localised areas.
