Remarkable story of solitary lyrebirds all using a dam as safe haven during fires. (god knows how they cope now, what they eat, with their world reduced to ash).

#wildoz@GeorgieJBurgess@mattwfielding This piece about reintroducing emus to Tassie doesn't address that there's no apex predator to keep numbers down. Is the suggestion to have culls or introduce some other animal 'coz Thylacine ain't returning soonhttps://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-01-28/researchers-study-poo-to-find-answers-on-tasmanian-emu/11886884 … -
"Even low-intensity fires can make habitat unsuitable for lyrebirds. So fires on this scale and this intensity are likely to be very problematic." Plus the problem of predators increases. Some troubling news for lyrebird lovers.

#Koalas will have died during or after the awful fires in our eastern#eucalypt forests this spring, but don't believe the misinformed reports that the species is close to extinction.

Burnt koalas need mittens for their little paws!

So if you can knit, sew, crochet then put your hand up (because they can't

One of the black-flanked rock wallabies we caught last week at Kalbarri. BFRWs were rediscovered here in 2015 by rock climbers! So of course the re-found ones were called Cliff and Heidi...
