This thread is dedicated to mainly new speciss that made it and began to increase in numbers so they will most likely last at least of a period in european zoological gardens

An example is the yellow footed rock wallaby which did very well and can be seen in more and more institutions
 
Starting with masupials
I think to call a species establishing it should breed at more than one place

eastern quoll
11 Institutions, 6 breeding

Kowari
11 Institutions, 4 breeding

Common wombat (incl subspecies)
6 Institutions, 3 breeding

Wollies and potoroos going strong

Agile wallaby
has a come back with
4 Institutions, but thanks munich good breeding (beside Magdeburg)

Dusky Pademelon
11 Institutions, at least 4 breeding

Eastern wallaroo
7 Institutions, at least 4 breeding

Goodfellow tree kangaroo
10 Institutions, 4 breeding
at least a few recent births

Idk if swamp wallaby were rare but I see them more often than before

White striped Dorcopsis
4 Institutions, 2 breeding

Yellow-footed rock wallaby
12 Institutions, 5 strong breeding groups

Heard that New guinean ground cuscus
population is declining (only 6/15 breeding), bu hoped they revover themselves

I cross my fingeea for bear cuscus and hope spotted may have a comeback

Further I have read that some breeder managed to breed New guinean feathertail gliders

But one never knows since illegal animal trader often use those terms to hide the original source
