“Marsupial mice (antechinuses) are found in eastern and southeastern Australia, including parts of Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria.”
Authoritative Australian sources show that antechinuses occur in eastern and southeastern Australia, with documented species in Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria. The main caveat is that distribution varies by species, so not every antechinus occurs across all of those states. That does not undermine the claim’s core geographic point.
“The Australian states of Victoria, Queensland, and South Australia have adopted renewable energy targets that are more ambitious than the Australian federal government's renewable energy targets in at least some cases.”
The evidence supports the claim’s core point. Victoria and South Australia have adopted renewable electricity goals that exceed at least one federal benchmark, and Queensland’s targets also exceed the older legislated federal RET. The main caveat is that federal "targets" can mean either the 82% by 2030 policy goal or the much lower statutory RET, so comparisons are not always like-for-like.
