Roger Martin has had an enduring interest in the natural history, conservation and management of Australia's forest mammals for more than 30 years. Described by Tim Flannery as 'one of the most experienced field zoologists that I know', he has published numerous scientific papers, written popular articles and lectured in wildlife courses to tertiary students. Since the late 1980s, he has studied Australia's rarest tree-kangaroo, Bennett's Tree-kangaroo, in the monsoon forests of Far North Queensland.
