Golden Green Plush-Coated Ringtail Possum (Pseudochirops corinnae) of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea

The computer crashed afore I communicated another component of my comment below.

The internet site that I defer to in the comment box two entries down is indicated in both the Wikipedia English and the Wikipedia French articles.

That site maintains the following url:
http://www.wolaland.org/page/Wola.php.

Wikipedia has two articles on the Wola people.

One article is in English even as the other article is in French.

Both articles include a minimal bibliography even as not much information is available through online sources or through such publications as books, collections, journals or magazines.

The Shetland Isles

The first sentence advises us that "There are about a hundred islands in Shetland, some inhabited, some not."

Is it possible for those uninhabited islands to inhabit some people never at no time or sometime at some time?

The internet site The Was Valley Anthropological Archives gives a brief summary of the Wola 21st-century existence.

The sidebar menu has as its topics Wola, Wolaland, Maps, Movies, References, Links.

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

The white example with the dark type appeals to me even as it perhaps admits to a simple elegance.

Is there a white-color choice in educational-poster product lines?

For example, might there be a creamier or a glossier option?

An individual Wola or a Wola family bears community and family standing through subsistence-agriculture garden, subsistence-ranching pigs and sometimes provincial-capital interactions that bring them into the money economy.

So nowadays cash, garden, home and pigs matter even as previously bird-of-paradise plumes, cosmetic tree-sap oil, cowrie and pearl shells, and crude salt mattered.

A Wola family abides near the family garden even as the Wola people therefore adhere to a scattered-settlement pattern of valley abodes.

Sometimes extended networks of related families dwell in such a manner as to develop small communities of close relatives.

A nuclear-family inhabitation or extended-family inhabitations nevertheless invoke the residential iteration of each father/husband in his own inhabitation, with his children, pigs and wife in a separate inhabitation.

The Wola people adhere to a subsistence-cultivation lifestyle even as they attend to animism or Christianity or both.

Subsistence agriculture centers upon sweet potatoes even as the Wola people coordinate that main crop with such supplements as bananas, green vegetables, sugarcane and taro.

Wola men clear shifting cultivation-friendly soils and construct garden fences even as Wola women concern themselves with breaking and preparing that soil for planting the afore-considered crops.

The below-articulated valley quintet affects the Ak Valley, the Lai Valley, the Men Valley, the Nemb Valley and the Was Valley.

Mountainous, rugged terrain and turbulent rivers domicile the afore-described valley quintet.

The five valleys figure between 1,600 and 2,000 meters (5,249.34 and 6,561.68 feet) above sea level.

Valley sides guard Wola populations even as cane grasslands and cultivated gardens grow there.

The higher-altitude watersheds inspire, in their human settlement-free iterations, tropical-montane rainforests.

No really.

For those asking about the Wola people, the afore-announced ethnic group abides in five valleys in the Southern Highlands province of Papua New Guinea.

The Wola people dwell northeast of Lake Kutubu whose location is perhaps 50 kilometers (31.07 miles) southwest of Southern-Highlands provincial-capital Mendi and whose west-horizonward outlet is the Kikori River that in turn itinerates into the Gulf of Papua identified with coastal-southwest New Guinea and itself itinerating from the western-Pacific Ocean's Coral Sea.

Would it be possible that "sneaky" green was a competitor's signature color?!

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

An acquaintance, upon being apprised of possibly "sneaky" green, approached green and sneaky alignments with recidivistic fears of foliaged forests and woodlands even as people ambled about without being apprised of animal or other-people amblers behind, under, within all that greenery!

Green Ringtail Possum (Pseudochirops archeri) of Northeastern Australia's Queensland Region

Rose-tamarind (Aytera divaricata) trees flower as Sapindaceae soapberry-family members of eastern Australia.

The afore-given tree grows from under 10 to 35-plus meters (32.81 to 114.83 feet) tall.

It hosts alternate, 2- to 6-paired leaflets.

The lance- to egg-shaped, non-pointed, non-toothed leaves invoke 5- to 15-centimeter (1.97- to 5.91-inch) lengths and 1.5- to 6-centimeter- (0.59- to 2.36-inch-) widths on 3- to 6-millimeter- (0.12- to 0.24-inch-) long leaf stems. They manifest above- and below-raised midribs and 8 to 12 main-lateral side veins. They niche immature-red, maturing-pink, mature-yellow foliage.

Creamy flowers occupy hairy, wide panicles ("tuft"; Latin pānicula) even as three-lobed fruit capsules occasion brown, oval-shaped, fleshy, red aril-occupying seeds.

White-sandpaper fig (Ficus fraseri) trees flower as Moraceae fig-and-mulberry family members of coastal-east and coastal-north Australia, south-Pacific Vanuatu Republic and southwest-Pacific French-territorial New Caledonia.

The afore-given tree grows 6 to 15 meters (19.69- to 49.21-feet) high.

it hosts 6- to 14-centimeter- (2.36- to 5.51-inch-) long, 2.5- to 6.5-centimeter- (0.98- to 2.56-inch-) wide leaves on 1- to 2-centimeter- (0.39- to 0.79-inch-) long leaf stems.

White-sandpaper figs manifest 1- to 1.5-centimeter- (0.39- to 0.59-inch-) long, rounded figs that mature from immature yellow to orange-red.
