Barmah Forest species including Rakali
Burrowing Bettong bettongia lesueur
These beautiful nocturnal creatures once lived across all of southern Australia in communal ‘warrens’. Most people have never and will never see this species. They now live in the wild on a couple of miniscule islands off the West Australian coast safe from cats and foxes. A major food source is subterrestrial fungi ( similar to truffles).
Bilby Macrotis lagotis
This species has to be the most beautiful of all marsupials, it is however in decline with 10% decrease over the last 10 years, iucnredlist.org
