Think it must be a good dream as the little one looks like it has a smile on its face :O) Quokkas are found on Rottnest Island in Western Australia :O) If you have never seen what a Quokka looks like before go to “Dreaming Quokka” in my art. I put it on there for people from overseas who have never seen these little guys!

Taken at Cleland Conservation and Wildlife Park, South Australia, where you can actually hold a koala and have your photo taken, if you have the inclination (and the money). This image featured in the group Australian Wildlife in September 2009. Thanks so much!

Steve’s_Biography The koala is a small bear-like, tree-dwelling, herbivorous marsupial which averages about 9kg (20lb) in weight. Its fur is thick and usually ash grey with a tinge of brown in places. The koala gets its name from an ancient Aboriginal word meaning “no drink” because it receives over 90% of its hydration from the Eucalyptus leaves (also known as gum leaves) it eats, and only drinks when ill or times when there is not enough moisture in the leaves, ie during droughts etc. The koala is the only mammal, other than the Greater Glider and Ringtail Possum, which can survive on a diet of eucalyptus leaves.

Based on a photo emailed from a friend. Lou Lou lives in a wooden drey (nest) on a balcony three storys up, where she is treated to slices of apple and banana. There is a tree adjacent to the balcony, through which she “bounds with terrifying abandon from branch to branch like a spring loaded rocket”. ...............................................

This Koala had obviously had enough traveling, so decided to stop and sit in the middle of the road to Lake Elizabeth, in the Great Otway National Park. Fortunately it is not a very busy road and It did move on eventually.

As a result of a freak accident, the entire internet is uploaded into a Marsupial Mouse. Sort of.

Featured Austarlia Your Standing In It Group 21/06/09 Wallabies are part of a group called ‘macropods’, which means ‘great-footed animals’. Kangaroos are the largest members of this group. There are many different kinds of wallaby Wallabies are found in Australia, and there are different kinds of wallaby found all over the country, in all the different habitats. Like all macropods, wallabies have strong back legs with long feet. They hop on their back legs when travelling fast, using the tail as a balance. This is like bouncing on a spring. It is an energy-efficient way of travelling great distances. Their front legs are small. They are marsupials. The pouches of female wallabies, like those of other macropods, are front-opening. The pouches of some marsupials, such as wombats, are backward opening so they don’t fill with dirt when the female digs a burrow. Wallabies are smaller than kangaroos. They often eat the leaves of bushes as well as eating grass. Wallabies are active at night and rest during the day. There are three kinds of wallaby called nailtail wallabies. They have a nail-like tip to their tails, but the reason for it is not known. Nailtails are found in grassy woodlands in the northern parts of Australia. They are shy and live alone. As they hop, they move their front legs as though they are pedalling, and are nicknamed ‘organ grinder wallabies’. Some wallabies live in rocky parts of Australia. They are called rock wallabies. Their hind feet are furry to give them a better grip as they hop on rocks. Their tails are slender for better balance. Among these are the Yellow-footed rock wallaby and the Brush-tailed rock wallaby. The yellow-footed rock wallaby is grey, with yellow and orange legs,feet and arms.It has a stripy tail and a white cheek stripe. It lives in large groups. It was hunted for its fur, and has had to compete for food with feral goats and rabbits, so there are fewer of these wallabies than there were. Taken on Phillip Island Victoria Australia, it surprised us how many of these guys we saw and they obviously are used to people,quite content to sit for a few shots before going on their way !

Of the remaining 20% almost none is protected and most occurs on privately-owned land. Settlers favoured the rich fertile lands along the eastern seaboard to have their farms and urban developments. Unfortunately, this is where the majority of koalas were already living because they also like to live in trees which are growing in fertile soils. The main causes of loss of habitat include: LAND CLEARING Clearing of the land for expansion of human settlement eg:- / agriculture, housing, mining, forestry,factories and roads. / The results of this would include:- / · loss of habitat / · increased disturbance by humans / · injury or death from traffic / · injury or death from dogs and cats / · effects of garden pesticides getting into waterways / · increased competition for food and territory because of overcrowding / · increased stress on animals, making them more susceptible to disease. / It has also been documented that over 4000 koalas are killed each year by dogs and cars. It easy to see that the biggest threat to the Koala population is the human.

Oh my! I was attending the opening ceremony of our new Gateway to Wollongong ceremony this morning where these two cute Aussies from Symbio animal park were the stars. I had taken lots of photo’s, but decided on one last one before I left. Imagine my delight when they decided the show their love for one another right as I took aim. This is what right place right time is all about. / I edited out the background in photoshop as it was a glass window with lots of people refelected in it which really detracted from this cute pair / Taken with my Canion 40DSLR camera / f stop/8 / aperture-1/100 / ISO-400 / focal length -33 mm / Thanks for visiting
