Northern Hairy-nosed Wombats do more than just dig holes. They provide shelter, access to water, and food from upturned soil for other animals in the ecosystem. But with fewer than 500 left on the planet, these important marsupials are on the very edge of extinction.
The work we do at Australian Wildlife Conservancy is helping to ensure these stunning creatures always have a place to call home. Join Wildlife Ecologist Dr Ben Stepkovitch, in conversation with Tim Allard (Chief Executive Officer), and Sarah McKenna (National Manager, Engagement), to learn about how your support contributes to Northern Hairy-nosed Wombat conservation at Richard Underwood Nature Refuge. We delve into the history of the Wombat, current conservation projects, and share some exciting news from the field!
