Fauna might be eating mushrooms in Canberra

I did not see any fauna eating mushrooms, however many mushrooms were broken off and some had stems missing or animal shaped bite marks in them. The prime suspects were brushtail possums and sulphur-crested cockatoos. The mushrooms were in parkland, with exotic trees that would not usually be considered food trees for native Australian fauna.
