Southern Brown Bandicoot feeding at our back door, they love nuts, meat, beetles, worms, well almost anything…..
The females have a rear facing pouch so they do not fill up the babies in the pouch with dirt when they are digging, which they do very well.
They can have multiple babies up to 6 and leave the pouch when approx. a mouse size so by then mums belly is on the ground!
The kids to get in & out of the pouch before leaving her for good.
Why not stay and see them for yourself here @ Yelverton Brook?
A holiday with a conservation flavor – feel good about your choice and help support a family run tourism business that puts back into native wildlife conservation in a real way and you get to enjoy seeing & meeting the increasing friendly wildlife.
