Happy #WombatDay! "This animal has not any claim to swiftness of foot". This is one of our favourite quotes from the historic literature ("An account of the English colony in New South Wales", David Collins, 1804) biodiversitylibrary.org/page/45924805 via

Is passive acoustic monitoring worth it for terrestrial mammals? 🎙️🐨
We find it's not the one for all solution, but for vocal species, yes! It's highly effective & saves lots of time and money, especially in the long-term.

Happy #MarsupialMonday! Have you met our little friend, the #SandhillDunnart?
Often called a “marsupial mouse” 🐀 the nocturnal dunnart is a carnivorous critter who likes to feed on invertebrates: think ants, spiders, termites, etc. In the rare periods when food is scarce, they can enter torpor.
