Greater Bilby life style diagram

The Greater Bilby (Macrotis lagotis) is a nocturnal marsupial found in arid regions of Australia. It primarily inhabits sandy deserts and grasslands, where it digs extensive burrow systems for shelter and protection from predators. Its diet consists mainly of insects, seeds, and bulbs, which it forages for at night. The Greater Bilby plays a crucial role in its ecosystem by aerating the soil and dispersing seeds, contributing to the health of its habitat.
