By at least 55 million years ago marsupials had arrived on this continent - and they may have looked like this bandicoot. #palentology #bandicoot #kean4sci #evolution #australiananimals #wildoz

It's always exciting when a camera trap captures a platypus. When one's in the water a layer of air and water on its fur makes it too cold to trigger the sensors, but this one climbed right out of the water. #platypus #australiananimals #Tasmania #monotremes #nature #cameratrap #trailcam #wildlife

Catching up on some old photos recently and found this adorable Echidna making a trail through the clovers.

I'd love to hold a koala. They sleep 22 hours a day, eat eucalyptus leaves and just hang out. I want to spend some time with that guy.

Koalas sleep for an average of 20 hours a day due to their low-energy eucalyptus leaf diet. This fascinating adaptation allows them to conserve energy and thrive in their Australian habitat. Like and follow for more captivating animal stories. #EduSky #EduSkyPrimary #Koala #AustralianAnimals

#Sounds you hear in #Australia at night…

Why did the #possum over the road have to carry on so much at THREE THIRTY A.M.?!

It is a Common Brushtail Possum who also make other freaky sounds to scare people at night

This cutie pie’s been hanging around the garden a bit lately. I love echidnas… so cute and this one is tiny! I don’t know if it’s young or just particularly small. Every time I see him I think how small he looks as he trundles round.

"Australia's wildest bandit—you'll never catch me!"

I feel like I haven't drawn enough Australian mammals.

The Thorny Devil mug is finally coming to life! I can't wait to see how the glaze makes these colors pop. 😍
