HERE’S a question for Post readers. What’s Bass Coast’s most endangered species? The orange bellied parrot, the bandicoot or the southern right whale? We humans should be chuffed that such rare and spectacular organisms are still to be found locally, despite our best attempts to consign them to extinction. In fact, the mantle of our “most critically endangered” species belongs to a tiny fish.
