Two species of Wallabies. The Parma - on Kawau island - apparently introduced by Gov Grey; and the Brush-tailed (?) Wallaby, in the Waimate area of the South island. The Red-necked wallaby has also been introduced, and has become a major pest. And of course the Common Brush-tailed Possum, which having turned omnivore is a danger to the native birds.

Causes of extinction in New Zealand?
Introduced species and habitat loss are the primary causes of extinction of native species in New Zealand. Introduced species such as feral cats, foxes, rats and stoats have decimated some native populations. Even the brushtail possum, rainbow lorikeets, black swan and cockatoos which have been introduced from Australia, threaten the habitat of native New Zealand species.
