🚨 Over 2,600 #wombats were legally killed in #Victoria in 2024 under outdated wildlife #laws. While #reforms to the Wildlife Act are welcome, they fall short of #protecting our native #animals.

🚧🐾 Testing wombat gates along the M12! 🐾🚧
Designed by WPSA, these gates aim to give #wombats and other wildlife freedom of movement through the #landscape — complementing #underpasses and #overpasses 🌿.
But we need to be extra vigilant for wildlife when driving. 🚗🐾

This trial will explore how #wombat gates can:
✅ Reduce fence damage
✅ Support #coexistence between people and wombats

We’ve just received a truly special #sighting from one of our amazing #WomSAT contributors - a #white #wombat spotted in #Victoria! A #rare and #captivating sight. Not albino, but still unique. Unlike albino animals, white wombats retain subtle traces of #pigment in their fur.
