reminder that in Australia we are home to 2 native egg-laying mammals & a long-eared hopping marsupial even more endearing than a bunny, yet persist in representing the holiday via an invasive species!

Greater Bilby (Macrotis lagotis) located in the Scotia Sanctuary.
I was lucky enough to catch this bilby in traps last night, while I was trapping for wallabies.

The greater (Macrotis lagotis) is a threatened that dig spiral shaped burrows, have large ears that they pump blood through to cool themselves, fused toes on their hind feet (syndactyly), and a blunt tail spur. They’re so weird 🤪😍

Imagine a future where bilbies replace feral rabbits in the outback. Arid Recovery and other great conservation groups are working to make this a reality. You can too. Buy this Easter or adopt a bilby aridrecovery.org.au/adoption/adopt…
