Australian Animals: Caring for Wombats

Presentation Summary

Wombats have evolved to live with the conditions of the Australian bush, including using their burrows to hide from bushfires. However, the devastating fires of 2019/2022 saw many wombat burrows destroyed and wombats injured and left hungry. Wildlife carers use scientific knowledge of wombats to care for wombats and return them to their homes.
