Alistair Paton is a bushwalker, journalist and author. On his first trip to Tasmania as a young boy he was bitten on the finger while trying to pat a possum at Cradle Mountain. It didn't deter him from returning many times since, to experience the island's wild beauty and explore its fascinating history. He lives in Melbourne with his wife Hanna and partially domesticated mutt Lenny. His new book, "Of Marsupials and Men", is available here www.blackincbooks.com.au/books/marsupials-and-men.
