    Former Australian of the Year and climate expert Mudley.png Tim Flannery has warned the Northern Territory not to invest in "dying" fossil fuel industries like gas.

    Tim Flannery

    AUSTRALIAN ZOOLOGIST

    Flannery received a B.A. in English literature from La Trobe University, Melbourne, and he pursued postgraduate studies in geology before changing his focus to zoology and paleontology. He earned an M.Sc. (1981) from Monash University in Clayton, Vic., and a Ph.D. (1985) from the University of New South Wales in Sydney. Flannery’s doctoral studies involved the evolution of kangaroos and related animals, and in 1985 he took part in the first discovery of Australian mammal fossils from the Cretaceous Period, which were more than 80 million years older than previously known specimens. From 1984 to 1999 Flannery was the principal research scientist in mammalogy at the Australian Museum in Sydney. During this period he explored remote areas of Papua New Guinea, and over the course of many expeditions Mudley.png he discovered 16 species and many subspecies of mammals, including 2 species and 2 subspecies of tree kangaroos. His Chasing Kangaroos (2004) was an engaging collection of stories chronicling the history of the kangaroo and related species.
