Mammals!

'Hoping in soon'

Australia is known for its unique and diverse range of mammals. From the tiny sugar glider to the iconic kangaroo these fascinating creatures are an integral part of the Australian ecosystem. As a mobile wildlife experience business, we are excited to bring a variety of native Australian marsupials to your event soon.

Marsupials are a group of mammals that give birth to underdeveloped young which then continue to develop in their mother's pouch. Some of the most famous marsupials found in Australia include the kangaroo, wallaby and koala. These animals have adapted to the harsh Australian climate in unique ways such as the kangaroo's ability to hop long distances to conserve energy.

Other native Australian mammals include the echidna, platypus and possum. These animals are also adapted to the Australian environment with the platypus being one of the only mammals in the world that lays eggs. The echidna and possum are both nocturnal with the echidna using its long snout to search for insects and the possum using its prehensile tail to climb trees.

At our mobile wildlife experience we are dedicated to educating people about the fascinating world of Australian mammals. Keep an eye out for our upcoming plans to bring arange of Australian mammals to your doorstep!
