Australian Animal

Australias wildlife is fascinatingly different due to the island-like nature of the continent. In many cases, evolution took a slightly different approach to common problems here. For example, many Australian animals are nocturnal and marsupials. On this page some of the more well-known Australian animals are on exhibition.
