Species of marsupial
The Weyland ringtail possum (Pseudochirulus caroli) is a species of marsupial in the family Pseudocheiridae. It is endemic to the western Central Cordillera, including the Weyland and Star Mountains, of Papua Province, Indonesia.[2] P. caroli is also "known from four localities west of the Star Mountains" and tends to live in montane forest or other hilly areas.[2] Currently, the Weyland ringtail is not endangered but should be "monitored [because] it could rapidly become threatened if either human encroachment or hunting were to increase significantly."[3]
